April 8, 20232 yr 13 hours ago, TheMailBox357 said: I don't think that's correct. I've always heard GH, Ketch, BobbyBurton, & Jeff Howe refer to the 2002 recruiting cycle as the 1st internet recruiting cycle. Plus I've been following CFB recruiting since during the 2004 recruiting cycle & I've NEVER seen any pre-2002 recruiting rankings, recruit profiles, or team rankings on either Rivals or Scout's websites. In your history of idiotic takes, this one could be the dumbest. Just woefully uninformed and completely unnecessary. National rankings existed for decades before 2002 and on the Internet for about 7 years prior. I’m not going to explain further because this post isn’t worth another wasted second of time. Motherfucker.

Since there weren't recruiting rankings or anything. In 1995 I was excited after reviewing the Dallas Morning News top 100 when I saw we got a RB out of California who was ranked somewhere in the 80s or 90s. Then I came back down to earth when I saw that we missed out on the real prize out of California that year, a RB ranked in the 30s named Sirr.

Wooooo!" Clearly there was a story. Savion Red isn’t a walk-on, he’s one of the top stories of the spring. And since Murphy was the QB, it was backups (3rd team?) perhaps vs. twos, and they scored on a long run that probably doesn’t happen very often. I’m glad they have emotion and support their teammate. Plus, it’s a good sign how his teammates reacted to Red, he’s known to have a strong personality, so it’s probably accepted by the team rather than frowned upon.

April 8, 20232 yr With Red emerging, Blue showing signs of life, and Baxter living up to the hype, I bet that keeps Sark from looking in the portal for another RB. I'm sure that would change if an all conference back were to put his name in. Correct me if I'm wrong, Blue was the number 1 back in the country before he was kicked off his team right? Blue, Baxter, Gibson would be a helluva heater.

April 8, 20232 yr Before anyone gets too excited about the situation at RB or any other position, part of the objective of spring training reps is to give players hope, to keep them out of the portal before fall.

From what the UT 9.95ers have said over the years, pre-2002 recruiting cycle you kept up with recruiting through newspapers, magazines, local/regional high school sports shows, & etc.

April 8, 20232 yr That BJ, Roy, Sloan class was definitely covered on Rivals 100 in a similar format to what we see now. The “class of beef” (when we loaded up with about 7 OL) a year or two before or after that class was also on Rivals.

So I gotta assume that 247 used old magazines & old articles to fill in the 247 composite ratings for these recruit profiles from UT's 2000 class seeing as Rivals & Scout's websites have never had pre-2002 ratings or rankings since I've been following recruiting.
April 8, 20232 yr JFC dude. Were you even alive in 2000? Some of us were and were enrolled at UT when Mack was mopping up in recruiting and Bobby Burton started his website documenting it all.
April 8, 20232 yr Rivals started in ‘97 I believe, fuck, Max Emfinger and his perm were scamming dumb fucks to pay for faxes back in 1979. Recruiting news has been around a long time, and as soon as the Internet was a thing in the mid to late 90’s, there was recruiting news on it.

April 8, 20232 yr I used to walk 15 miles uphill both ways just to get a copy of the Statesman’s fab 55. If a player wasn’t on that list no one knew their name until the first game when it was on their jersey.

April 9, 20232 yr Pressley was good for recruiting updates back in the dialup age. The only time in my life I had insider info was Quentin Jammer. Roommates girlfriend’s father was his hs principal. He was like don’t sweat this shit, he’s going to Texas.

I remember when I lived in Boston in the early 90’s checking the mailbox daily for Jerry Scarborough’s True Orange newsletter. I was like a recruiting crack addictt needing a fix calling his 1-800 number for updates. Same with AAS ,I think it was Susan or Susanne Halliburton and both charged by the minute and they would talk very slow in the reports like 5 minutes of information took 10 minutes. Those were the days my friend!
