it would be smart for the program to wait and see how the end finishes. richt year 3 started 5-1 and then fell off the map.

Agree but negative recruiting makes it much more difficult to wait that long now that kids can sign In December.

I would like to see us go to a "rolling 1-year extension" process unless/until we win the ACC (and/or 11 regular season games), at which point a multi-year extension and raise would be earned and warranted.

Think that would affect the brittle bottoms of high school recruits?
 
It's not about him leaving its about showing recruits the school is committed to him as well.
If we're ranked in the 2nd half of the season then negative recruiting another program based on the HC not having contract extension in place makes no sense.

If we're not ranked at that time then we got bigger issues beyond extensions.
 
Manny is not going anywhere. Period. He's a 2nd year head coach getting better from year one to year two. He's putting together the type of staff the board hoes said he couldn't and the type of SEC staff they dikc ride constantly. Recruiting is going to continue to get better. This year I see at least a top 7 class maybe top 5. Manny is going to be our coach for awhile

Literally every school does it so it obviously does.
 
I’m happy we got some recruiters on staff & I’m looking forward to seeing how this staff is able to develop these players with a full offseason & complete Spring/Summer/Fall.

I’m still in wait & see when it comes to them playing nothing but upperclassmen, but I’m excited to see what the new additions to the staff brings.

As long as they allow for an open competition to happen at multiple spots particularly at WR, CB, LB & S, then I think we’ll be in good shape moving forward. But if they continue to force feed dudes like McCloud, Wiggins, Pope, Jennings, Steed, Carter etc more snaps than everybody else behind them then we’ll still be back at square 1.

We need an infusion of competition & talent, I’m tired of slow upperclassmen being the shoo-in starters at spots when they routinely make mistakes, blow assignments & just simply don’t play well enough on a week to week basis. We’re a pretty talented team, it’s time to start transitioning the talent on paper to it translating on the field in good production. We need the best 22, not just the guys who have been here for half a decade, just put the best 22 on the field even if that means playing True/Red Frosh.

But the hire I’m obviously most excited about is TRob, he will prove to be a Godsend for this program both in recruiting & improved secondary play. Manny should do all he can to keep him here for at least one more year it will pay dividends for us to keep in the groove of recruiting & player development of the secondary for at least 2 years.

The new hires on paper look very good. This recruiting class including portal players look like an overall upgrade to the roster. At this point I am back to cautiously optimistic for the next few years. My optimism not higher than that because this program has me cokerized, Shannonized, Goldenized and richtized. Hopefully the turnaround has began. One can still dream

Every school negative recruits.

Every school doesn't negative recruit against another school selling that recruit on the idea that the other coach won't be there in 2 years because he doesn't have a contract extension yet even though his program is currently ranked in top 25. That's my point.
