The 2013 Graveyard Thread

I don't get the allure of playing for Muschamp. The guy is an absolute emotional ticking time bomb. He did it with smoke and mirrors this year and Urban Meyer's historic recruiting class from a few years ago.

Disappointed in Rolin, but if he wants to sip Muschamp's kool aid - good luck with that.

Moving on.........

No offense.

you don't wish him too take offense? you just slighted the guy in public. and even c2 isnt the end all be all on the subject. the guy stated an opinion. you are probably 15 yrs old, if you are an adult your post is shameful.

Another caveat: nothing is over until the first Wednesday in February.

We have 4 fast, strong and capable LB's coming in. No loss, it just opens up another spot for a future Gamecock.

Beat Floriduh!!

[5lbYardcock]

Did I mention Gilmore, Lattimore, Clowney? I guess our recruiting sucks.

[Pastatroy]

...favoritism...

While C2 definitely knows all things Carolina sports, but there are a a number of other guys on here that have good inside information about a number if recruits. It's not that hard to figure out who they are.

I agree. Our recruiting overall has been fine. Losing a LB who just blew out a knee is far from a damper on this class. This opens up a slot for someone who can come in and play if we get the right person.

If we can land commitments from David Williams and Yannick Ngakoue, the momentum will swing back the other way. Losing Rolin may well hurt, but we won't really know for 2-3 years. He may have ended up being a primadonna anyway, and as others have pointed out there have been plenty of guys that we thought were huge losses when they went somewhere else but ended up being marginal players at best.

Got to win an SEC Title and get to a BCS Bowl to change that. Next year it stacks up nicely for us. We have a favorable schedule and a strong crop of instate talent as well as a few studs in both NC and GA we are looking strong with. It won't be easy but if we take care of business on the field and in recruiting next year it can be a gamechanger.

Happens a lot. These kind of commits typical get bit in the ass by karma.

I agree. Next year we have a chance to hit the Grand Slam in recruiting. This years class still has some very nice talent tho and I will not sell it short over Langley and Rolin.

I don't blame the coaches at all, although I may be in the minority. I would change my mind if someone can explain to me exactly what our coaches did or didn't do to lose Rolin.

His family paid for the surgery through their health insurance. USC had nothing to do with his surgery.

It is what it is, frankly I'm more ashamed of some of our fans on his twitter account.

I think he should feel guilty and ashamed for what he pulled, but that is his decision. Our fans acting like idiots on twitter hurts no one but Carolina.

[Flips]

This board is laughable. Calling out a kid in one thread for decommitting, begging for another kid who decommitted from another school in another thread. I really hope they don't read this crap, because you guys are making the fan base look terrible.

[uscfan1]

This is why I don't follow recruiting anymore. Not gonna base my sanity or happiness on 17 yr olds decision makings.

Looking at you Coach Mangus, Ward, and Brown. Those guys hold the keys to the remaining targets on the board.

Spurrior Jr is in charge of recruiting. Where I work, everyone knows if they don't get the job done, they won't have a job, but Coach Bubba is in no danger of losing his job. I don't know of he's phoning it in or not, I just know what I read in the papers, and today's not a good day. I hope our coaches feel a fire in their belly and are not half assing it.

[GamecockJames]

My name is not C2 nor do I have special info. What I do have is incite into the young mind. Until these guys are in class at your institution take everything that is said with a grain of salt. These guys are 17-18yr olds and very very few of them stay true to something when they say it out loud. There minds change like the blowing of the wind.

That's why when guys like Rolin do this sort of thing it doesn't phase me one bit. It would be wise to remember this bit of info in the future so u don't get your pressure up over nothing lol.
