RECRUITING CONFIDENTIAL: Marrone leaving Syracuse could hurt local prospects

I hope Moore is up to the responsibility of recruiting the city for us. As the HS coaches are saying, he needs to convince them of Syracuse's commitment to the city. That means being on top of things, attention to detail, following up with them. These are things that he was rumored to have trouble with in recruiting Jersey. His track record there would seem to bear that out. And I don't want to hear the "Jersey is overrated" excuses. Whether it is or not, SU and Marrone felt it important enough to assign a guy to work the state and SU offered kids down there. But Moore hasn't exactly set the world on fire for us there. I still don't understand why Marrone didn't take Moore with him (or why Moore didn't go with Marrone). If there was one guy on the staff that seemed to be perfectly suited to coaching the pro game---focusing on technique and schemes without having to worry about recruiting, babysitting players, etc.---it was Moore.
