Because our "2*" are all really good. Watch the film on Rosales just demolishing people. He reminds me of the guy from the longest yard (the new one) "You teach me to football?". And Dakota Turner came out here and, according to Augustin, was the best player at the entire camp by far. We are getting guys from smaller schools who don't camp as much, so they don't get the 3* b.s. Nick Begg will be much better when he gets more playing time on one of the best teams in the state.

I guess that's what we're destined to do: Pray that the 2-stars and a few 3-stars that we perennially get, will magically turn into 4- and 5-stars to enable us to compete. Of course, that is counter intuitive, since MOST of the time the schools that are loaded with the latter walk over those with the former. As ever, we'll keep hoping that Rocky will morph into a Chris Petersen.

Our 2* and 3* guys have led us to back-to-back bowl games and a season where we are expecting 8+ wins and another bowl. Hell, some guy even predicted us to finnish in the top 25, we're on the right track. The "upgrade" in recruiting won't happen overnight, it will take a couple of years in the BE imo.

Just keep in mind it is still very early in the recruiting process.

We're getting better 2* and 3* star guys. A few of them are on national watch lists this year. Escobar will be an NFL TE and McFadden an NFL CB. We will get better recruits. It took Boise State a decade of winning to get the better caliber recruits they're now seeing. We have more advantages than they do other than the fact they have an excellent system and winning tradition. Look at our men's hoops team last year. A small team who lacked depth, but all of them understood what it took to win from previous teams. That winner's attitude helped the program in a bridge year reload and not rebuild. That's a sign of a program. Not a flash in the pan. It takes years to build that type of attitude and culture. No way that happens over night.

What do you expect out of a guy who has been a fan since the early 90s?

Essentially the same 25 teams continue to get all the 5-4 star athletes. The TCUs and Boises have become good by loading teams up with quality 3 star athletes that fit their systems and compliment them with a couple 4 star cats. We are on the right track and are landing these same type of players (McFadden n Escobar both 2 star athletes)
Myownwords has a personal gripe with life or Rocky.. Spill da beans, did you play against him and get trucked? Did y'all go to the same HS and he dated the girl you liked? The man was 8-4 and an all time personal record field goal from a bowl victory... In his first year! Maybe you'll morph into an actual Aztec supporter and give him and his staff time to work.

Keep in mind that Rocky has stated many times that this is year 4 of the 5 year rebuild. It may have been his first year as head coach but he has stressed he is continuing what Hoke started.

Please read my words, not your agenda of between-the-lines make believe extrapolations.

As ever, we'll keep hoping that Rocky will morph into a Chris Petersen. You mean like Escobar,Lockett and Mcfadden three two star bums. UCLA and Cal have had tons of three and four star guys,they play like crap for the most part. I have pointed out repeatedly the all knowing services do not see guys the same. A Player is three stars on one,two stars on the other not rated on another. Long stresses the basics hard nose football big powerful O'lineman hard inside runners,mobile QBs and a fast defense that has year in and year out been top forty. TCU and Boise State built their programs with two star guys and the occassional three star. They had a system and followed it. I keep Hopi gyou will morph into a critical thinker instead of a A parrot. Awk Rocky's no good Awk three stars, awk four stars, Awk Poly wants a cracker.We were one bad kicker away from going 10-3 last year. We had approximately the same amount of rated players as Boise the last couple of years. How does that make Rocky a bad recruiter? Your illogical. We have gone form two walkon starting de's to Galea, Dontrell,Beed,Sanchez all sophomores and freshman who were rated *** by one service or another.The nose tackle is a***.Two of the thee linebackers were *** The oline frosh were highly rated and before that Rodriguez and Dilley were *** as well. Morin was supposedly rated number 20 QB,Jeffries number 10,Garett, Muema ,Desaan,Wright were all *** that that means much but it does to you)
