Message: [QUOTE="tep624, post: 5661299, member: 430"] 1) This player didn’t flip. He was given the talk 3 months ago and now committed to CMU. Please change that to verbal to CMU or something. 2) This is the way factories have always recruited. The only difference between us and them is that rather than give kids the talk that we took early verbals from that either didn’t develop, that we ended up recruiting over in the same class or that we had to move on from due to roster balance, we still honored the scholarship to our own detriment. So while that’s admirable, it’s also a great way to pile up players that aren’t of use on your roster. Fran is expected to deliver results and you don’t do that with the wrong player mix. And developments on the ground can change that and you need to adapt. As brutal as it is in the short-term, I’d rather this be the approach because it’s the best thing for the program in the long run. [/QUOTE]
