Message: [QUOTE="Brooky03, post: 5709322, member: 8594"] Maybe? Depends how we’re defining discounted, I guess. My perspective is that context is always important and with any midmajor promotion to P4, recruiting will always be the unknown. Hodgson is regarded as a good/great recruiter; I’m just curious how much of his success as a HC is attributable to talent and how much to coaching. Out-recruiting the AAC is a different ballgame than out-recruiting the ACC, obviously. Winning 24+ games with a clear talent advantage is different than winning 24+ games without it. Since I’m not confident SU will ever compete with the top of the ACC in NIL money (and therefore talent) I want a sense of what a coach will do without a talent advantage. But none of this exists in a vacuum. He could be the better recruiter and the better X’s and O’s coach. His recruiting could be so much better than the other candidates that nothing else matters.
