Do you believe the Big 2 and OOS Schools are finding it more difficult in the last 2 months to pluck away top talent from SoFL with a real HC and staff in place? We know the previous idiots had an open door non compete in recruiting gentleman's agreement for 5 years. Would you say the U's evaluations and recruiting is what we expect in regards to SoFL?
who tf is the Big 2?
The post makes little sense. Besides not explaining the "Big 2", he talks of some crazy "open door non compete gentleman's agreement." What is that nonsense? I think Al Golden recruited very aggressively, was relentless and never let up in recruiting. He held a ton of camps, was constantly bringing in kids to camps and for visits, and had a very talented class lined up at one point for 2016. Unfortunately, he could not follow through, constantly lost top kids that should have stayed home, did not properly develop a lot of the potentially top kids he did recruit and ran a poorly conceived defense.
I think to some extent he lost out on top kids because he was too much of a straight arrow and probably couldn't keep up with the lies and incentives that came from the likes of Alabama, perhaps Ohio State, Auburn, LSU and other leading programs. He couldn't buy players like the others did.
Not to defend Goldman, but this BS about a "gentleman's agreement" and "non compete"? Are you being facetious? Are you high right now?
