Damn sad. Gotta laugh, tho. They keep sinking to new levels of ineptitude.Two decades worth.
This is funny, Feldman spoke w/ coaches from different conferences and asked what they didn't like about recruiting:
The most telling issue for us in that article is this:
What’s the biggest difference between a recruitment where a head coach is actively involved and one where it’s mostly handled by an assistant and a staffer?
Sun Belt coach: Oh my gosh, if you’re recruiting without a head coach, especially at the Power 5 level, you might as well walk into a boxing match with your hands tied behind your back.
Pac-12 coach: That was my life at (my previous job). Our head coach was awful at recruiting. Thought it was beneath him … and (thought) that he walked in and was the closer. When the head coach is involved and you’re recruiting against that and you don’t have your head coach involved, it’s a *****.
MAC coach: You could ask a recruit who are your top (schools) and why are they your top, and the first thing they’ll say is I’m getting contacted by the whole staff whereas this staff it’s only one coach that’s contacting me. It’s huge, it plays a big role in having a chance to get a player when they have a relationship with the head coach.
ACC coach: There’s a lot of sharks when the HC is (involved) — they’re swinging a much bigger stick. Cristobal is really tough to beat. If Oregon is involved, it’s a bad deal because the head coach is so involved in the process and how he’s gonna recruit the kid.
really the only positive thing that Butters did the whole time he was here was demand a full size practice facility, a standalone, and other upgrades.
in the end this is really what killed Butters was not his conservative ass offense, as much as we hated that and his pitiful recruiting. what got him fired and whatthe administration hated him for wanting to be an elite school and calling them the slumlords that they are.
He couldn't recruit before he was sanctioned.our head coach can’t recruit. He’s been sanctioned.
Yay…
To be a realistic metaphor, there should be more sh!t-stains on this bowl.
Ahh, we won the Natty in 2008/09, then nearly went undefeated in 2009/10...only 11-12 years ago.Two decades worth.
How much does that cost? We could easily crowd finance that amongst Gator Chatters. If you gots no bread, Oxbucks can be converted by Concrete. 100-1 OxB to USD.The heat is turned up on Mullen but I want the heat turned up on Stricklin. I want to see a Fire Scott Stricklin banner behind a plane flying over Jax on Saturday. .
well we don't really play defense anywayWe crash to 9th in the SEC
23rd nationally
And ONLY 3 defensive recruits. 3!
This class determines our success or more accurate accurately lack of success in 2025 and 2026. There is a significant number of people who think Mullen deserves the right to fuchs up 2027 as well.Ahh, we won the Natty in 2008/09, then nearly went undefeated in 2009/10...only 11-12 years ago.
Quit trying to increase the size of our Sh!t Sammich. .
