Thoughts from the Chick

Phillip Sims - QB signee

He’s an early enrolee at Alabama, and got to talk to the media yesterday on signing day. 

He seems like a cool dude -

Sorry guys - this one will probably be lost on you.  But ladies - doesn’t signing day kind of remind you of bid day?

I don’t know why I thought about that this morning, but as excitement builds to see which big 5-star recruit commits to whom, I was reminded of those days of old when we called friends, family, etc to see, “Who’s their top choice???” 

There’s a lot of that going on today as the media tries to get an early idea of where those last remaining unknowns are going.

And I’d almost venture to say that there’s just as much drama involved with football recruiting as there was with rush (see Lane Kiffin, Urban Meyer, Ed Orgeron, Keenan Allen, Markieth Ambles, etc).

Now, if we could only get Rolondo McClain, Terrence Cody, Mark Ingram & Julio Jones to learn a skit or do a door song….

(Think about that one, ladies, and if you don’t get a laugh, then you really need to have yourself checked out for “lack-of-sense-of-humor-itis”.)

Cool article for those of you who are interested in the personal side of recruiting and not just the numbers.
