Butch had his way of making you understand how important you were to us while still telling you ill beat ur *** every time u cross us if u dont come. Itll be 4 years of **** u from us. Butch and jimmy had the same line. It was "either come get on this train or get ran the **** over by it..." and u knew he was dead ****** serious when he said it. Cmr is slowly getting back to making kids realize the value of a scholarship to us. You gotta realize though recruiting is a whole different animal now with the emergence of social media. It used to be about your connections to high school coaches throughout ur network. Now theres no such thing as a real hidden gem. Obviously theres kids who still get slept on or emerge later due to various reasons. But now kids can simply hit whatever coach they want up on twitter now. Scouting kids is virtually non existent. Its the reason people like butch are dinasaurs now. Because this generation relates to each other in different ways than it used to... besides that with social media its made conferences like the big 10 and sec monsters in a way because they have deeper pockets than most. When you have a booster network that is capable of spending whatever on whichever kid your coaches target thats hard to beat when you dont have those same resources... its why you get these 5 star loaded classes,its why the same teams dominate in recruiting and on the field. They are playing the game with loaded dice... ****em.
Do you believe Miami can overcome this? Do we have the staff to develop the kids we do have to beat these 5 star kids in these programs?
