"We feel like we're hitting the right players and we're getting the right players and we're building the program the right way."

DyeEraTiger 0 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I expect us every year to be in the tops of the country in recruiting," Chizik said. This attitude has never been as prevalent at AU, imo. I know that recruiting is important for all coaches and they put emphasis on it but some work harder than others on this. A lot of hc's in the past have delegated the recruiting and simply came in to close the deal. This was pretty typical 25 years ago. No longer. CGC seems to have a healthy balance between managing the program, recruiting and game day coaching. What head coach has assemled a better staff and managed it as well? He is also considered one of the more knowledgeable defensive minds in coaching by many. Keep working hard and smart CGC! We are proud of you.

Pat Dye sure seemed to do a pretty danged good job of bringing in top talent every year, even if there weren't websites dedicated to such things at the time...

ellitor 33,679 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 JMO but this should be in the Recruiting thread. I think the video article by Mike Farrell is just as interesting and telling as Hoke's article. He talks about Foster being the leader of the pack and gives real credence to this package deal, which national analysts rarely do. He even included OJ as one to watch with all this which was a pleasant surprise to me that Farrell mentioned him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUenginerd 16 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 It's critical alright. And just happens to be timed as the third class after the MNC, where the recruiting impact is highest from the MNC? Hasn't that been the theory around here since we won it?

And just happens to be timed as the third class after the MNC, where the recruiting impact is highest from the MNC? Hasn't that been the theory around here since we won it? The data show it's the 4th class or 3rd full season after winning the title. Won the title in January 2011. !st class Feb 2011, 2nd class Feb 2012, 3rd class Feb 2013, 4th class Feb 2014. !st season 2011-2012, 2nd season 2012-2013, 3rd season 2013-2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
