    It doesn?t matter. Again, the white flag has been raised on the football program. The administration doesn?t care and the money boosters (the few we have) don?t care. It?s all about baseball now. Football recruiting no longer matters.

    The boosters we have still care. And this one is on the staff not the boosters should we have an epic fail.

    Truth! This should've been closed out back in January or February.

    The more stuff I hear about this staff, the more I think they just wanna coast and be comfortable. I'm sure the pro-Leach crowd will start touting "Leach likes to get the under the radar kids. He does more with less. Etc."

    It should be required reading for everyone to go read the article from a few years ago about Leach and his QBs. It might be a pay article on the Athletic now, but it basically says there's very little teaching about his offensive system and that its one of the smallest playbooks they'd ever seen. You basically have to teach yourself how to run an offense and call plays as the QB. So its no wonder that some highly rated recruits, like Sawyer, have a hard time picking up this offense because its not really one where you are going to get taught anything.

    But back to recruiting. I'm so ready for us to get a HC and staff that absolutely wants to kill it on the recruiting trail and not just half-ass things.

    Jomo could recruit. That was his only knack as our HC.

    If you went by rankings he wasn't that good.... he had a passion for it and still couldn't close the deal...
