He’s not being brought in for recruiting.
you realize the staffers do most of their recruiting, correct? That's the one of the reasons we're getting killed.
Other teams have 20 to 50 guys doing this. we have, I think, three, though I don't remember them replacing one of the two that left last year. So all the other staff has to help. There's a lot of evaluation that has to go on and that usually goes through multiple levels of review, each with a recommendation.
it's part of the reason that other so many recruits have been committed to Alabama or Clemson for 6 or 9 months before we even send them an offer.
Frankly schmoozing is easier on an old guy than sitting in front of a screen and digesting endless amounts of video.
I know on some level you're just trying to be a funny little gadfly, but you realize there's a reason why we suck at this right? It isnt just a streak of bad luck at a Vegas table. We are a laughingstock on the recruiting trail for a reason. Top to bottom medicrity, at best. Abject failure is a more apt description for most of it.
He isn't just sitting in a room and cutting film part-time. That's the GA's (and interns) jobs.
