Message: [QUOTE="qdawgg, post: 3116773, member: 52"] I’ve said since a long time ago two things related to this. DB has left every job he’s been at, he’s left more jobs then Marrone has had wet dreams and binders for. Anyone thinking he’s not above leaving SU is crazy. Does that mean he leaves, who the hell knows. Living in a modest house is prob more indicative future plans don’t include SU then, he likes to live modestly. Recruiting - DB is a great guy and recruits really like him. Then they go somewhere else. It happened every day when I was in the car business. Every recruit has different reasons for going different places. This idea that DB is a unique coach is fan talk. There’s lots of great guys coaching football. If it mattered that he was a great guy and unique to coaching we’d be complaining about having too many 4 star recruits and not enough 5 stars. But we aren’t. Alabama gets a lot of recruits and he seems to be a docuhebag Having a coach that players/parents like and respect is important but it’s not solely the reason most 4 star recruits pick one school over another. I’m sure most recruits sign their LOI thinking they like their future coach. Then they show up to school and... If attendance mattered Miami wouldn’t get better recruits then us, Pitt wouldn’t get better recruits then us, there’s lots of schools with poor attendance hauling in good recruiting classes. We’re starting to put everything together though. Coaching, the dome, public perception nationwide, fan support, $$$. I think if DB sticks around past next year we start to really see a jump in recruiting. We’ve always tried to recruit big time players. We would get excited if one even visited, it was like having a unicorn show up. Why wouldn’t they want to play at a school with 4 wins and get loads of playing time losing????? Things have been different the last couple years, we’ve gotten many high rated recruits actually seemingly interested in us. At some point all these positive things I think have to break with recruiting classes. I believe we’re on the right track, just might not always feel like it after games like MD. [/QUOTE]
