Message: [QUOTE="SmilinBob, post: 505823, member: 857"] It isn't black or white you're right A4SU. Marrone did well with some of GRobs better recruits and filling the rest of the roster with more talent, speed and size helped those guys succeed as well...also add better coaching. IMO...Marrone and his staff weren't perfect and they missed on some recruits and probably screwed up switching kids positions as well, for need or just evaluation, but overall they did a very nice job, especially at the o-line. Our guys looked like they were running in the mud while the other teams looked like they had a fast track back in the grob days and what is nice is that Shafer doesn't have to "cut" kids like Marrone did when he got here. What is also nice is that it isn't a year that we have to get 25 or so recruits due to a mass graduation...that is the one timing thing that turned out well for us. [/QUOTE]
