I understand that. The point was that the post that illicited the comment to “cull some posters” was totally within the bounds of board rules and simply indicated a possible defection from the prevailing attitude.
I thought it was against the rules to bash PJ

what happens when you roll a fake snowball down a snow covered mountain?
It depends on the snowpack. If you're dealing with a snowpack with near surface facets or new snow with a F hardness, likely the fake snowball penetrates the snow layer. If it has enough mass and the snowpack is shallow and weak enough, it could affect any weak layers and pull out a slab propagating outward and could possibly step down into weaker layers at the base of the snowpack, cleaning out the seasons snowpack with a deep slab. If the snow surface is warming through temperature or solar radiation, the snowball may trigger a wet loose slide, or typically just create a pinwheel (otherwise known as a snow snail). If the snow surface is 1F or knife hardness, it will simply roll down the slope, creating a hazard for those climbing below. This is why you wear helmets on the ascent in steep locations, that and rockfall.

I think I was at every Black Sabbath concert in the Omni. Can't remember any of them but pretty sure I was there.
Ah, the 70s: when parents still thought kids were as innocent as they were in the 50s.

For those that are turning their noses up at the 3* ranking, remember, these types of guys automatically get another star added when they commit to one of the football factories. So rest easy knowing that these guys are more likely 4* talents without the SEC bias.

Also, the majority of Clemson's signees were 3 stars last year, 16 of 28. They had the 9th ranked class. They coach and develop the heck out of them.

Has a pretty nice highlight reel for a 17 year old. Athletic for his size with good hands. Another year of high school and a year or two in our weight room and eating our food and I think he's going to do just fine.

I pointed that out in a thread probably back in December or something. If you look the teams average recruiting class rank over 4 years versus its finish in the ratings, Clemmons blows everyone else out of the water. They clearly overachieve while every other team underachieves, save for Bama of course but even they are slightly underachieving.

If "Bama is slightly underachieving" is a conclusion in any recruiting analysis, then you it helps you see more clearly the limitations of recruiting analyses.

Well, by “slightly underachieving” it is meant that they have the #1 recruiting class almost every year but don’t win the natty every year.

Clemson doesn’t overachieve. They give their players PED’s

Someone already said it, but that kid does NOT like being tackled. He’s a load to bring down.
