He's done a good job with what he's had. The talent hasn't been up to par back there (at least for Miami which should always be loaded with CBs). Not so sure about that. IMO Frierson and Blades are better off at S, though they will have to play CB by necessity. And Blades didn't even start...

My thoughts exactly. "Close" and Mike Rumph shouldn't be used in the same sentence.

Well we can't conclusively say this for another 24 hours. I'm still holding out hope that one of TC or PS2 comes to their senses and signs with us. Just too good of an opportunity here for them. However, if they don't, you're right. That would be just too much evidence of Rumph's lack of...

There is a huge sales aspect of being a good recruiter. Some people have it and many don't. Sure, if you're National Champions, it's easier, but some coaches are able to get it done when the on-the-field results are mediocre.

It is an indictment on Rumph, especially when you consider this is the 3rd year in a row that he's lost top targets down the stretch. We're lucky that even missing on top CB targets, we can get the quality of the 4 guys you mentioned. Though I'm thinking Frierson and Blades may be more suited...

The evidence of his lack of recruiting prowess is overwhelming. Three years in a row our CB recruiting falls apart down the stretch. We can generally get by missing top CB targets because even the second tier guys in South Florida are really good. But we all want to do more than "get by."...

Would probably fit him better. Doesn't seem to have the "sales personality," and I don't think that can be developed easily.

Can we send him to a sales training seminar? I'll chip in for the tuition.

Stop it. There's no guarantee we get any of the '18guys.

Generally people either have Sales ability or they don't. And it appears Rumph isn't too strong in that area. Not saying it can't change, but I'm not that confident we clean up with CBs in 2018 like many here except. We lost most of our local CB talent to Florida, despite having playing...
