With all honesty who cares about recruiting if you can consistently finish #1 in pass defense?

Can he finish #1 consistently? Idk.

but people on this board prioritize recruiting over coaching and that's retarded. It's why coach Kool is the best in the business and doesn't matter that he isn't the greatest recruiter, coaching matters more
Do you really think being number one in pass defense is because of a CB coach who coaches 6 guys? Yikes you guys have simpleton views.
 
Recruits worry about wins and hot chicks. Skin color is irrelevant. Diaz is Cuban dude.
They ain't worried about race, but best believe they're paying attention to it and aware of it. As I've repeatedly said, every single elite team playing right now has a diverse staff on both sides of the ball. That is not by accident.

Manny's Cuban, but he ain't black (not that it matters as it has nothing to do with my original point). Ask Black Cubans about the difference. Happy New Year.

Apparently the diverse staff that Richt had did not appeal to this current recruiting class. Happy New Year to you too.
 
You're not seeing recruiting correctly. You're letting all the background noise (bags) cloud the picture.

Nothing has really changed in the recruiting landscape. We never got all the "elites" (that today would be five stars) even in the 80's and 90s. And some of the elites we did get were notable flops. Where JJ and Butch excelled was being spot on evaluating the large pool of 3* and low 4* in SFL. And equally important, they both had the development staff to coach them up. Just look at JJ's and Butch's coaching tree.

Further, JJ himself stated he recruited for speed and intelligence; they were the two things that can't be coached. And he wasn't talking about just the skill positions, he emphasized speed across the board. OL getting to their blocks quicker, DL with a quicker first step, LB that can go sideline to sideline or cover a RB in the flats. As far as intelligence he was talking football IQ not book smarts. QBs, LBs, whoever, processing info, making faster reads, reacting faster. That was our MO … and we've forgot about. Now... all anyone talks about is getting a few prancing ponies catching the air mail down field out of the spread.

JJ and Butch were successful despite the same disadvantages against the state schools. Do you really think that Bama is really concerned about UM? They're using the bags to out bid GA, or Clemson, or Auburn. They know we're not in the bag game.

We have to change our strategy and stop chasing dreams. JJ and Butch laid out the pattern, Lock into the large pool of 3* and 4* guys we can sign. (Over the last 15 year there's an annual thread of the 3* or 4* we've overlooked). Coach them up and stop beating ourselves and we'll get our mojo back … then the 5*s will come.

Spot on!!!
 
I know I'm gonna get murdered for this by certain posters who refuse to think these things should matter, and the usual suspects will probably call me a race baiter (whatever) --

But you can't fire the one black guy on your defensive staff.

Yes, those things do matter and parents and recruits do notice it. Not saying Rumph has to be retained, but it's not a good look having no black guys on one side of the ball.
Jesus.

Bama's DBs don't turn and look for the ball on fade routes.. They're taught to play through the hands. We saw it on Saturday. Surtain never turned around.
Glad you mentioned that. Surtain was getting abused by Clemson Wr. I know he is a Freshman but **** that was ugly.

It was an Oklahoma WR. He’s a true frosh. Campbell has gotten burned at UGA a few times, too. They both made a lot of plays this season and lived up to their billing IMO. Either one would’ve started here across from Mike Jack with Bandy in the slot.

uhh. Cambelll wound up getting benched because he got burnt so much. He did not live up to his billing.

I agree that this will not be a good look at all.
