Message: [QUOTE="anomander, post: 5136980, member: 2766"] What other coaches had the resources that he did besides Shafer? Arguably Marrone recruited at the same level as Shafer and Babers, but with Big East affiliation, HS facilities, and coming off the worse stretch of SU football as headwinds. Yet he identified, developed talent, and put together some solid teams, which could have even been better but for the lack of depth where a few key injuries totally derailed promising season. Same with Babers in some cases, but he didn’t have the same excuses as Marrone for not being able to develop somewhat serviceable depth. Also, sounds like you missed the point. Talking about people who constantly say the recruiting ranking were wrong. or Syracuse gets the short end of the stick. Obviously, our overall record under Babers perfectly matched where we finished in recruiting rankings each year. [/QUOTE]
