2. If you get a kickass Frosh, throw his ass to the wolves (screw "development"/redshirting)... if he's a stud, put him on the field; even if only on ST...
3. Target AL & LA harder... UA is (IMO) neglecting the state to go more "national"... take advantage of that. Also, with the dumpster fire that is LSU, get some cats there, too.
4. Process more.
5. Hammer every single top 300 (needed) position group guy...

ps- Shirley, someone has already thought of this, no?
Good point about Alabama.

As far as your ps- that's what frustrated so many of us about Dan. What I'm talking about is mostly common sense. Or it should be.

And I can understand the wool getting pulled over his eyes at the Army AAG in 2011. But the bad thing was it didn't seem like Dan did much to change anything.
