2015 YSU Football Recruiting Thread
paladin:
Now ? That implies a change.
jbags:
London Fletcher wasnt tall enough or heavy enough either....james Laurenitas wasnt heavy enough coming out of high school...Sam Mills was too short to play middle linebacker...why is everyone over reacting to size...it doesnt take a genius or hours of film study to figure out if a kid is tough enough to play ball...I hate the Steelers but how the heck did Palomalu last as long as he did in the draft? How about Chris Spielman? Ill tell you how...cuz guys like Paladin though they were too small and too slow to play...lets judge these kids after they get get here not before

Could not agree more. If they were a half-step faster, 2-4 inches taller ...they would not be here. Wolf was taking as many leftovers as Pelini will. Pelini has the name going for him. Remember, when we were winning championships, we had something that would sway a recruit away from Akron or Kent; since we no longer have this, the name "Pelini" is going to mean a great deal more to many recruits.

The recruits that Pelini is getting =Heacock recruits?
The way I understand it is that Wolf brought good D1 athletes but couldn't coach them. Bo is proven here maybe he can coach up what we already have. The cupboard is not bare.
However, the new recruits appear to be too small so I am asking if you think Bo's recruits are about equal to Heacock's...........in your opinion............or are Bo's closer to Wolford's recruits except slightly smaller. I remember you saying that Heacock's recruits were not D1 athletes.
paladin:
Hold that thought. I assure we will be having a conversation about it in a few short years. ;D
In my opinion, Wolf brought in far better athletes than Heacock did. And too early to tell if Bo's are close to Wolf's since recruiting isn't over with yet. Yes, they are small. Yes some have limited abilities. So far, it looks like Bo's recruits are closer to Heacock's than Wolf's . But better than what Heacock dragged in.
