I hope Perrilloux comes too. I think he could push for playing time next year. I just dont see him as a fit with Spurrier based on his QBs in the past. I dont know if he ever went after a running QB (even though he has the best arm I have ever seen in person), he certainly never played one.
lol since when???? mark it down, you're wrong. perrilloux may be the best recruit since herschel walker....that's how great he is going to be. He walks on water. No pressure RP but you can only be that great under the tutelage of the best coach in college football and he don't wear no burnt orange.
I wouldn't say he was the best since Hershel Walker. I am pretty sure adrian peterson is the closest to that...
which player will have the greatest impact in college football over their career? I'd bet RP by a mile as long as he avoids UT and comes here instead.
Spurrier and Crompton That's actually not far-fetched. I have it on good authority (I live in Asheville) that earlier in the season Crompton let it be known that if Spurrier was to take the North Carolina job (which appeared to be an impending opening earlier) then Crompton would go to UNC. The reason, I heard, is that Crompton thinks Spurrier is the GREATEST QB teacher ever and would do anything to learn from and play for visorboy. That would be a major coup, and, like someone posted above, it would have Phat Phil hugging the porcelain goddess for days on end. Geez, Richt and Fulmer must be laying mile-long turds about now. :rofl:
Spurrier better get a defensive genius and some recruiters. His program sucked when he left because he did not recruit. Like FSU, his offense was praised but his defense won the games. Then Stoops left.
5 losses at home in 12 years far from sucking on any level. dropped in talent was the word yet his teams proved on the field they were still UF and played like it most times. other teams simply got better. enter MR and NS.
Since I live in East Tennessee, I would love to see the anguish on the volunteer fans face if Crompton decides to switch his commitment to SC. You can see the fear in their eyes if that happens.
Considering Russell and FLynn were BOTH ranked in the top-15 nationally at QB (Russell was #4--and ranked the #1 Pro-style QB when he came out of high school), I think we HAVE a good QB on our team, potentially two even. Be it Russell or Flynn--you've got to have more confidence in our young players already here. Especially since both were highly recruited. You can't automatically say that RP is someone your team "needs" because they "need a good QB" until after you see RP play at the college level--and only after he gets game experience. I don't know if RP would be fairing better than our current QB production. Playing QB on any level has a learning curve, and Russell and Flynn are in the "dog days" of that curve. Not saying we don't want RP--but I think it's a bit premature to say we NEED him.
