Or, compare to Daz Patterson or Chris Garrett.

And, compare Maleek to Ryan Boykin.

Anybody else a little concerned about our WR situation going forward? It seems like we have signed a number of possession type receivers, but can any of them be gamebreakers who can beat one on one coverage and stretch the field? That's probably my biggest complaint with the makeup of this class. Hopefully a few of them turn out to be under the radar guys like Brazill was.

Sorry, Doc, available only by prescription here in Ohio.  It would be illegal for me to send you one of these little green pills.  They also make Ducksterman our new QB look like Big Ben.  They'd even make Monroe see the bright future of Ohio football.  They're probably available OTC out there in the land of fruits and nuts.

And the reason that this means much when it doesn't even have all our commits? I'm trying to say that if they can't even get the number of commits right, why would you believe the other numbers?

I don't care how many stars they have if we can win a MAC title with them and put an end to the fold like a lawnchair in November trend we have been putting out on the field the past few years.

Just a thought about the signing day press conference yesterday. Does it bother others that the coaches don't fully introduce the recruits with their full names during the presser? I know that they show highlights of the recruits and probably have their names on the videos, but we can't see the videos or the names. It also kind of bugs me that some coaches leave the lecture or whatever and disappear from the shot. Either the camera should follow them or they should stay put where we can see and hear them. Some coaches did an excellent job, some not so much.
I'm just saying that if they're going to live stream these events they should consider the viewing audience not in the room as well as those in the room.

Really valid feedback that the staff would benefit from. When I have contacted Tom Symonds I have received replies and seen results. Give him a shot.

The distorted sound at the beginning, and the 15 or so minute gap where you saw people coming and going before the coaches started talking bothered me more than the things you mentioned. Surely they could edit out that 15 minutes.

If anyone else is going to watch the replay, watch the front while Solich talks, and then when he's done, advance to the 25:00 mark, which is about when the coaches start talking.
