Phin,
I do agree with this statement "Before you jump all over the jail thing having nothing to do with football career, I will contend that where a kid spends 3 to 4 years of his early adult life, and what structure and atmosphere he is in, has just as much to do with whether he becomes a criminal as whether he is “set up for the NFL.”

I believe that an environment and structure a kid is put in directly correlates to his overall success in life. Parents of recruits seem to be as focused on that as much, if not more, than how well a school can “set up” the kid for the NFL.
With the good ones, it’s, “what kind of man can you turn my boy into?” Sometimes “good men” turn into better players and teammates than merely “good athletes.”
I once took a sports econ class at Clemson. I took a sports agency law class at Charleston later. There are some interesting case studies and theories out there on what means literally lead to the best ends- both financially and legally, so to speak…

Study Looks at Coach Influence on Player Development
Published on January 6, 2014
Colorado College Research Professor Kevin Rask has published a study in Winthrop Intelligence, titled ?Coach Influence on Player Development,? that looks at the effect a college football head coach has on a recruit?s development.
The article notes that so many high school football players who are ranked by the recruiting services dream of one day making an NFL roster ? and so few actually do. Rask, a member of CC?s Economics and Business Department, looks at the many questions surrounding young players? potential for development during college. Is it only the five-star recruits who eventually populate the NFLs rosters or do three-star recruits have just as good a chance to make a team? Is there a big conference bias or do the combined numbers and individual characteristics trump the pedigree?
Key findings of the study include:
?Any given recruit is more likely to make an NFL roster if they are on a better college team as measured by the AP rankings.
?Five-star recruits ? the most elite athletes making up 2.6 percent of the recruit sample ? are far from a lock to make the professional ranks. The five-star recruits have less than a 50 percent chance of seeing the NFL.
?For coaches with more than 100 recruits in the sample, the high end of the distribution is roughly 20-30 percent of their recruits making an NFL roster.
?A five-star recruit is14 percentage points more likely than the omitted category (two- and one-star recruits) to make an NFL roster. A four-star is 5.4 percentage points more likely to see the NFL, and a three-star is half of that.

Nice article backing up the comments about a 2 loss team making the playoffs…

OH BOY
The SEC West is sure looking impressive against TCU right now.
^said no one seriously
Where are all your excuses, SEC homers, a.k.a. coots? 0-28 at the half against the non-defense-playing BIG12.
“Maybe they just don’t want to be there.”
I wouldn’t either if I were on an overhyped team getting this Oklahoma’ed.
It could get worse before the day’s end, SEC fans.
Where is that guy YellowJacket that used to post on here?
23.54, can you please give him a temporary hall pass?

Very good, Fritz. I will give you credit for two excuses. You are getting things moving right along here.
EXCUSES FOR THE BEST DIVISION IN ALL OF CFB HISTORY (LSU AND OLE MISS TO DATE) SUCKING IN ITS BOWL GAMES
- Clemson couldn’t beat em.
- The officials in the Peach Bowl were actually prison guards from The Longest Yard who mistook Bo Wallace for Burt Reynolds.

The reel question to ask yourself is why does the SEC in general own such a big chunk of you?

Spoken by a true Rebel fan…effing joke
“I may be going to hell in a bucket. But at least I’m enjoying the ride”
Bo Wallace is horrible.

I don’t think any team in the country would want to play the first team left out of the playoff with something to prove.
This game has gotten comical. I wonder if the Ole Miss kids will pull a clemson and ask them to let up a little since they have the game won?

It’s not the SEC that gets any of my attention. It’s the highly annoying and delusional coot SEC homers around here that constantly point to being in the SEC as their trophy that will trump anything that a non-SEC team could ever accomplish.
Just last night I was receiving texts from a coot explaining, in great detail, how the coot schedule this year was so much more difficult than the tater schedule. Actually, no… it wasn’t. Our best opponents were UL, UGA (away), GT (away) and FSU (away). You played UGA (home), Auburn (away) and TAM (home).
The SEC schtick is burnt out. The SEC West and East and all the ESPN bias are a joke. Bama isn’t the #1 team in the country. They’ve lost to a team that’s getting curb stomped right now, remember.
Please get back to the excuses. I like hearing them now rather than being blind sided at work or out on the boat or something out of nowhere.

For someone as smart as phin, you would think he could tell when he is being trolled. Loon is just a bonus

I guess we’re at a ceiling of 4 excuses for now. We still have one more SEC West team to watch today though, so don’t touch that remote… THIS IS SEC FOOTBALL!

Clemson would be very average in the SEC.
Phin is the one trolling…

Thank you for this high compliment.
Avg in the SEC is basically better than everyone else in college football, the CFL, NFL, XFL, and All Madden teams, right?
