Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 344641, member: 485"] Yes -- it means we can continue to RS linemen & "raw" athletes. But where exactly is the magic formula? If you look at who plays early, and who needs a year or two, it does not appear that NY kids need any special treatment. Doug has stabilized the roster after 4 years (filling in with JUCOs); recruited downstate, neighboring states, and FL, and largely because of Adkins -- Georgia. It is basically establishing or re-establishing connections downstate; using Wheatley in Ohio and Michigan; and trying to close with prospects. It is throwing a very wide net of offers. Trying to upgrade facilities and making the program more attractive. Lots of hard work and step by step progress. All good -- I am just skeptical about theories that he is using an approach vastly different than other coaches with rival teams. [/QUOTE]
