I'm sure its fine. Not really worried about it to be honest. Would rather have our coaches on the recruiting trail right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having an OC certainly isn't a positive thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you are so satisfy with the 6-6 season, (That would’ve been 5-7 if not for the SEC officiating assist versus Georgia State). Happy with Harsin’s quarterback development (That was supposed to be so much better than Gus) happy with his recruiting. Then there is his spectacular playcalling! Especially his playcalling when games like Penn State and Alabama are on the line! Then there is his remarkable choice of assistant coaches. It is so obvious to see, this guy has it all together! Glad Y’all are so happy with our coaching hire!! Has anybody told you that your attitude sucks? Your posts in this thread smell of weakness. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are allowed to use a substitute since there is a coaching vacancy, thus Trevon Reed has been doing recruiting as that guy. As Golf mentioned, recruiting hasn't been hurt by not having an OC. If anything, its gotten better since Bobo left. Harsin is an offensive guy and recruits know the type of system that will be used. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cole256 17,084 Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Smh. Still on that? You guys really think only SECcoaches can coach? Or you have to be from the South to recruit? The greatest recruiter is wins. Win some games. Send some guys to the NFL. Recruiting is easy then. You first have to be able to coach. You then need guys that are relatable and energetic part of your staff. Last you have to really be invested in the kids. You have to care about what they do. You have to be invested in them and their well being. That's it. It's not hard at all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm of the opinion that we do need *some* local recruiting connections and that in order to get those early wins, we'll need some early recruiting help. I agree that we're going to ultimately need the product on the field to sustain the program but I also think we need to get a little boost in recruiting in order for Harsin to even be able to do what he wants to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that was the frustrating thing of firing that wr coach. That hurt recruiting period. But a bunch of people applauded it. Coincidentally the same people asking about what's up with recruiting ironically enough. Add to that the way Gus and his staff didn't care too much about local recruiting and all the transfers and stuff. We have a bunch of ground to make up as far as earning trust, and rightfully so. I damn sure wouldn't right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol it's like some think all you need is to say hey I was a graduate assistant at an SEC school......come play for me! And that's how you be successful. I promise you if we had an o line coach that could say hey I have sent guys to the NFL consistently and some are playing right now that I coached up we would have some great o line prospectscommitted right now., and it wouldn't matter where he's from. Where we're at unfortunately is right now we have to do homework and get in the trenches and find the guys that has slipped thru the cracks for whatever reason and really coach them and groom them. We have to build a reputation. Guys have to build a track record of success to where kids will say, I know if I play for this guy and listen I can reach the highest level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
