I remember when JerseyOrange used to post, he didn't have many nice things to say about Moore's recruiting in NJ.  I hate the @ss licking you have to do to get kids to come to your school but that's the way it is.  Taking a principled stance against that sort of thing is not the recipe to building a top 25 program.  You need talent to win and you just can't have any weak links on your staff.  Especially at WR.  The WR or TE coach at most schools is the top recruiter because his coaching responsibilities are usually less taxing than other position coaches or coordinators and he can spend more time on the road/in contact with recruits.

People here want to say that he's a great coach but he's got mediocre talent.  To my way of thinking, you can't give him a pass on both ends like that.  If he'd rather have the diamonds in the rough, then as a great coach he should be molding them into good college ball players more regularly than he has.  If the problem is that you can only take those kids so far, then he should put his pride aside, kiss some butt, and work these kids harder on the recruiting trail...if he can.  I just don't think he has the personality to do [B]all[/B] parts of his job effectively.
