First thing we need to do is to use our new advantages to ensure we out-recruit Rutgers and UConn.  Which means our northeast battles should be primarily with Penn State, Pitt, BC, Maryland.  Two less mouths to feed will help.
 
But we are still going to be a heavy player development type of school.  All the continued work in NYC proves that.  We're getting good athletes, we just need to turn them into good football players, and once we have that revolving pipeline up and running, we should have a pretty good development cycle each year.  That part is mostly on the assistant coaches.
 
You combine all of that with what I hope should be staff continuity, and the rest of the items will fall in place.  We'll be a better football team, we'll be playing more interesting opponents, we'll be able to compete with them, we'll have more people at games.
 
Competing regularly with heavyweights outside of Penn State is certainly on the to-do list, but being ready to win more of those battles is a long term plan.
