Mullen’s done a solid job since landing here, but if it were to be done all over, I’d still take Norvell. He’s a brilliant offensive mind and a terrific recruiter. I don’t want to see him on the other sideline after Thanksgiving each year.
I know zero about recruiting, but this is really the only tidbit I can find on his recruiting (from a noles 247 article pumping him up)
Recruiting Acumen
Norvell does have experience as a recruiting coordinator from his time at Tulsa and Pittsburgh.
The Tigers, under Norvell, have typically been one of the higher-ranked teams in recruiting rankings within the AAC. Norvell’s recruiting footprint has been regional, with an emphasis on Tennessee (obviously), Mississippi, Alabama and other states in the Southeast. He’s also been active in going after JUCO players.
His top-ranked class at Memphis is 56th (2017)
