Message: [QUOTE="PhatOrange, post: 1541210, member: 229"] When you guys actually go look at the rosters of all the coaches you love, tell me what the common theme is. So since our home state is not fertile, we have to go to where the kids are. A guy who’s spent his whole life coaching on the West Coast (or in Texas) is not going to get those kids to Syracuse. Can he go down to the Southeast and recruit? Sure he can, in due time (but will people be that patient?) I’d rather we cut past the ‘cultivation’ phase and hire a guy who’s been recruiting the Eastern Seaboard and the Southeast his entire career. This is particularly true if you're going to hire a guy with not much name recognition. [/QUOTE]
