Kid is a stud. Deserves his own thread

Dat title.

Yup, Franklin is a stud. Unfortantly, he'll leave for the draft after next year.

Stop that! I was getting nervous about that, thinking "oh no here we go, stud freshman who's going to leave"

We are paranoid aren't we?!

Speacking of transfers Jamie Wilson didn't have a catch today. Not even sure if he played.

I noticed that too. Weird.

Impressive win over FIU though.

FIU RB Alex Gardner -- committed to WMU at July camp, got home and de-committed 3 days later -- has 12 carries for 46 yards and 3 catches for 15 yards. Looks like he's their lead back as a true freshman.

Keep staying positive about the future of our team...and hope he doesn't read half of the negative stuff you write/say about the coach "he plays for" and "he stayed committed to" we might just keep him. Row on...

Yes, these message boards are serious bidness, have a major impact on the players!

Please. Can you SOUND more foolish? Thanks for confirming what we suspected, there is a "happy talk only" agenda.

I think the Rynearson state of the art ticker tape is down. SID morse coded them over to ESPN scoreboard, and Pony Expressed them to the Freep. Should be available soon.

Nice work downfield by Michael Henry on this run. ZT should throw him a WR screen or something in Idaho.

TAKING IT TO THE HOUSE

Not foolish, knowledgeable about 17 & 18 year old athletes and sites that they are on daily. Some of them you cant keep up with. When you are actively involved with Middle School and HS kids for a living you tend to know some of this stuff. Right all you HS teachers, HS coaches? This is 2014 not 1980 for some of you... get with it.

Mendon OL recruit is on Scouts CMU's board, actually talks to bloggers...more kids are on these chat boards than you think. Neighbors kid, current HS football player, finds out more SH!T about stuff on Twitter, Instagram, and Blog sites like these usually before they get put on MLIVE. He knew about Vandort leaving our team almost a week prior to MLIVE even getting ahold of the so called "rumor"

Just sayn these boards may not completely influence recruits but they do know about them, and some do read them.

"I'm going to Central - their message board posters are WAAAYYYY more positive than Western's!"

If potential recruits pay so much attention and you're worried about the negativity, explain Fleck's highly-rated class ("Best in MAC history").

I'm just F'N with DB cause he is never too positive about anything...especially on this board.

An honestly recruits must not really give a sh!t about all of our opinions because YES we had an incredible 2014 class, and if we can keep all the guys we have 2015 will be another great one!
