If you read this blog on a regular basis you know how much I love to perpetuate the “recruiting is a crapshoot, what are we doing with our lives” narrative about college football recruiting.
I’m not really trying to do this here, I just wanted to bring you three real quotes from three real Oklahoma State recruits who visited over the weekend. All of them are quite wonderful.
This is from Tre Flowers (Converse, TX):
They like my range, my eyes, my hips.
What do we think about his collarbones?
Now here’s Taylor Lewis (DeSoto, TX):
The chicken fried steak; it really set me off. I had that on Friday. It was real good.
I don’t know what being “set off” by a food feels like but I have to imagine it’s somewhat delectable.
Lastly, Deric Robertson (Killeen, TX):
I didn’t know Stillwater was that big. It’s a big city based off of OSU. I didn’t know it was that big until we were riding around on our campus tour.
He’s talking about Stillwater, OK not Stillwater, MN…correct?
Taylor Lewis should live in Kerr Drummond (if it’s even still around). Chicken Fried Steak offered every day.
It is still around. However, unless which wich or oregano’s offers chicken fried steak I don’t know about, I think this is no longer correct
Whoa, I don’t even know what those places are. The cafeteria used to offer CFS or another option, which was different every day. And they used to have a place called Pistol Pizza, which was good the first semester or so, then it got old. And they had a Taco Mayo in the Twenty-Something Store. This was all 98-2003. And gas cost a buck fifty back then. And Backstreet Boys were rocking the airwaves.
When did they start taking the recruits to Shortcakes?
When the recruits started closing down the bars on Saturday night!
I miss those 3am conversations w SPD in the next booth.
