Yeah.. this finish isn’t going to be what we want.
2019 VERY important.

Honestly, we would probably be better off going after JUCO's or grad transfers than taking them back.
I think he transferred.

Depends on year, and if Mullen was putting in a little "relentless" effort. It's also easier for Bama, and maybe some others, to say "you're next in line" on our board, than it is for us. And with the Oline recruits, it seems that's what we've been doing.
ETA: At least they're going all out trying to get 'er done.

So basically we are about to lay a big stink bomb. I?ll wait to see who closes with who to fully evaluate but basically this staff wasn?t able to sell new kids when other similar or lower programs with new staffs could and that?s a huge red flag for me.

Maybe this crap works both ways... JoMo may be our best coach ever, but if he sees how difficult it is to bring recruits to Starksville*, maybe he is questioning his decision too?!?

Holy shit he has been here less than 2 months.
Let’s see what 2019 brings.
This staff won’t be worse than the Mullen and Company.

That's a Stretch Armstrong type reach right there.

I have heard that we have a much more aggressive and comprehensive recruiting plan that is going to be implemented than what we are used to seeing. Joe now has the complete staff in place to make it work. Give him time. I think he recruits better than we?ve ever seen. If he doesn?t we?ll know soon enough.
Im agreeing with you to Ari.

You obviously forgot about the 2016 class.

You certainly know infinity more than me when it comes to recruiting, so I will take your word on it... do not remind me. Regardless though, this is shaping up to be a crash ending
ETA... now we did close with Simmons in 2016 who is our best player. There is no way we close with a Jeffrey Simmons this year

There is a lot more to recruiting kids than apparently you know about. It seems like you think it is the coach's fault, if we don't get a certain player. You do know it is the kid's decision, don't you? Sometimes they do have undue pressure, or maybe bad guidance, but it is the kid's decision in the end. Even their high school coaches can have an influence whether that is good or bad. So if our coaching staff is out there busting their butts on recruiting, why do you keep on and on with your criticism?

Dude... I’m the one blasting 7 & Shotgun for their constant melts at every loss or flip, but jeez. EVERYONE speaks to the impression JoMo makes when he meets you and talks to you, but yet he hasn’t brought in one new recruit, even ones that were State leans?!? If it’s not our coach’s recruiting prowess, then it’s something else. I’m sure he’s more frustrated than us. Kudos to the class he kept and hopefully Lovett is back on board!!

I think it is very clear I am not happy with this close, so I will try to let it go... move on to next season. With that said, if a salesman at an auto dealership works his butt off; but in the end is not selling cars, he is not doing his job. Moorhead and staff are very early in their tenure, so I am certainly not ready to say definitively they suck at recruiting. I really hope they do well next cycle.

Everyone seems to be middle aged men in the articles I have seen. Perhaps his power of impression is not as strong with young boys
