Goo Point Robmat. However, This a completely new scheme of O and D (O in particular). We need to target very specific people.
All of us need to remember that we are overloaded in recruits already. We do not have enough scholarships. At some point, we have to "pay the piper". Besides, we have always been able to have top RB's in the nation ...since the 80's. I think we are beginning to appreciate a power-back like Pace once again.
Also, as mentioned, most people in the conference have no idea of the level of prep ball here in the Valley. Our best players are playing anywhere they want. Not too many recruits out of the Dakotas starting on Big-10 & Big-12 teams. We have to wait on local guys. The other recruiting hot-spot is Florida ...it is the same for that entire state. We need to wait and see who fall through the cracks. We need to be getting our GA, CA, and VA guys at this time ...keeping them from the SoCon and the CAA.
Like Rob, I think the Pittsburgh area is going to be big for us over the next couple of years. That week-1 win is really going to have benefits.
