He’s got a tough task… he’s asked to bring in high end guys and going against coaches and offensive systems that have been WR centric and known for putting guys in the first round. Being intentional about getting guys the ball.
Gotta break the seal with that… once we get one 1st rounder then we can start beating out these other school for the “high end” talent.
When I watched Ohio State play they had the ability to run the ball just as effectively as we did/do. JS played with other WRs who have high draft grades… but they were still intentional with him and I believe that’s what the kids care about. And until we show a commitment to showcasing pass catchers it’s going to be tough to beat those other teams out.
Look at Arroyo… from a talent standpoint he was absolutely good enough to win the Mackey. What we did offensively he “could” have put up better numbers than he did… that wasn’t our philosophy. And Dawson commented to that after the season.
Our best receiver just went undrafted… what’s the sell? What do we tell recruits to get them to come here if the money is the same?
WRs more than anybody else care about that stuff.
