Doug wasn't a poor recruiter, he wasn't great either but He was trying to sell a product that was left behind 10 years ago.  Kids don't care that we were good in the late nineties, we also had horrendous facilities probably bottom 2-3 in the BCS, had been losing for 4-5 years and was basically 100% rebuilding.  You are also dealing with 17-18 year old kids.  GMC is a confirmed world class recruiter lets see how much better the recruiting gets, I believe it will get better but they have to continue to win games and the ipf will help big time.  Doug was also dealing with conference uncertainty for 2 years.  I think last year would have been his best class.  Everything with Marrone was done to build stability and a foundation, unfortunately I believe he left 2-3 years before his work was done.

Again, people need to see other BCS level facilities. I don't think with what has happened to college football the last 15 years ago that Syracuse will ever be a consistent top 20 program again, consistent..., I just don't.  Money isn't there or the infastructure
