If he would simply hang on to the recruits that he has flip on him every year he would be ranked where MSU should expect to be ranked on a yearly basis. It's not like he has to go out and expand his recruiting footprint to California. He just needs to not shit the bed in January with guys that he already has committed to his program. He's a really good developer and we could do way worse. To try and make excuses for him when every other sport on campus recruits just fine is just making excuses. He should be getting better at recruiting since he is, you know, building the program and changing that perception but he isn't. He's not taking the on the field results and improving the recruiting with those results. If he continues to win 6-8 games a year I'm ok with that. I'm just not going to make an excuse for him and act like he is something that he isn't, or act like other coaches couldn't come here and recruit way better than Mullen has recruited.
What do, you, believe he needs to do in order to hang on to those who are, "committed," whatever that means?
