Yeah you'd have to be a thin skinned bear to be bothered by that. There are other coaches who recruit in a similar fashion. Gary Pinkel is an example, Gary Patterson could be another. Recruit potential and develop it into future NFL guys. Which is why we have a first round LB who was a high school QB. Classic example.

Thin skinned and bear go hand in hand.
