One difference...Meyer and the Poddle finish STRONG as hell. They will both have top 5 classes this year! While we will be lucky to be in the top 20!
Dude, relax, it was a joke. Read the fine print. Those 2 are the top recruiters out there. The fact that I have to explain the joke is ridiculous. Oh, and here's another thing: THEY CAN RECRUIT ANYONE THEY WANT!!! The fact that CW got the classes he got the past 3 years says all you need to know about the guy as a recruiter. He's done a helluva job considering his on-field lack of success and the restrictions placed on him. Where was everyone when we got the top class last year and a top 5 2 years ago? Where was everyone when guys like Wood, Evans, Stockton, etc signed? Are you guys pissed off about what B. Smith, Floyd, Tate, Clausen, Robinson, Rudolph, Johnson, etc are doing on the field? All these guys CW brought in and all have All-American potential. Was he a bad closer with those guys? Like it's been said, EVERYBODY loses recruits. Nature of the beast. We haven't lost any more than many other programs, yet i don't hear about those other coaches being bad closers.
Lucky to finish in the top 20? I guarantee you we finish in the top 20. We've got some real studs coming in. Losing one recruit won't drop us that far. Again, the kid wanted to be closer to home. He waffled in the first place. He wasn't even ours in the 1st place. He probably would've transfered to be closer to home anyways. You're going to blame that on CW? Is he the reason our economy is in the dumps too?
You should be saying, what is CW going to do with these athletes? Are we going to keep losing to the Navy's and Syracuse's of the world? That's where you should be killing CW IMO...
