Yup, it was that or very similar. I miss Mickey's quotes. His "twitter" quote springs to mind.
EW was the "Stars get your fired".

RE: 2020 FB Recruiting
I remember after the 2004 Natty, a reporter caught up with the Mick and asked him the key to beating Montana, who was supposed to blow us out. The reporter was obviously looking for some deep Xs and Os answer, and expressionless Mickey just looked at the guy and said, "We just thought we were better than them."

EW's players were - the coaches were the only thing that kept us from winning.

This kid’s stats are pretty impressive:
“Threw for 3,945 yards and 47 touchdowns this past season while adding 325 and six TD’s on the ground.”
He is a little on the shorter side at 5’11.5”, 170 lbs (might as well call him 6 foot in cleats) but still has plenty of time to grow and put on some weight.
I wonder what held him back from getting some bigger name offers. Regardless I’m happy to have him and see that we continue to expand our recruiting footprint.
On an unrelated note, looks like Moorehead State may be rebranding their athletics logo. I notice while looking at his 247 offer list. They swapped the eagle out for a blue block M.

Morehead had that logo on their helmets the last time we hosted them (or one of the times). It’s an alternate logo but certainly not new.

Interesting signee but stats look impressive as others have said. Additionally although not super shocking based on where OC and HC are from but our recruiting footprint is changing. Hopefully they continue to lock down our normal pipelines.

Not a fan of a 5'11" QB unless they plan on making him a WR or DB.

RE: 2020 FB Recruiting
Tyler Stephens. 3 star OT from Ocean Lakes HS in Virginia Beach. Offers from:
FBS: App State, ODU, Temple, Liberty, Coastal Carolina, Kent State, Marshall, Massachusetts, Navy, Ohio and wait for it... ECU (UH OH! Already losing recruits to us).
FCS: Delaware, Elon, Richmond, William & Mary, Penn, Princeton, Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Georgetown, Howard, The Citadel, Campbell
Impressive list of offers. He might be the biggest verbal so far for 2020.

Control the LOS and you can do whatever you want.

You'll never see me complain about bringing in a highly recruited OL or DL. Can't have enough of them.
https://247sports.com/Player/Malcolm-Britt-46054134/
Now let's see if we can get his teammate. Doesn't look like we've offered yet for whatever reason.
Edit: Turns out we have offered - https://twitter.com/malcolm_2020/status/...4928242688
If Britt has the speed, he'd be a force as a SS with prototypical NFL size. .
