Great theory and I do agree. But we tried to keep OUR GUYS and it didn't work out. And it cost us any real opportunity(it's not happening with this transfer cycle) to beset those losses because Kelly waited until mid January to fire House and company. Then a few weeks convincing an average recruiter(excellent teacher) to come coach the DL at an over market rate yet won't go over market to get said coach someone to coach up. Meanwhile the average recruiter is gonna struggle to fill a very much needed 5-6 man group(hs and portal) with high quality kids that can help right away. The plan didn't work and now the situation is dire enough it could cost us the next 2 seasons at a minimum. They better start paying somebody other than coaches overpriced salaries.
As it was in the last cycle, it's not the individual battles lost that cause concern or even questions, it's the out of touch approach they take. It's as though they are always playing from behind in the forethought realm. No real plan for the worst case as with Smith/Wingo and the CB room. They keep digging the holes deeper with no rope to get out. Then a torn, overused rope is sent down with hopes we don't fall on our arse, like the CB room. With the DT room we now hope to just reach our feet after the fall. That rope broke.

I wish Fitz would have stuck around. Any warm body would do right now.

What would be easier, paying your guys to stay, a guy who knows this situation, and now makes more money while running it back for another year, or to convince an outside guy who's never had any interest in you ever, to go to your school over 5-6 others in the matter of a couple weeks?

Maybe should have stopped there. The holes/ropes thing kinda went sideways from there.
