I think it's the tip of the iceberg. This effort level and 'relentlessness' (as CMC called it) is the bare minimum/foundation. The evaluation piece needs a ton of investment, people, and innovation. I'm in the assessment and talent development world. Wish our team would apply some of the things just coming out. There's always too large a lag between research and practice.
You're on point Lu!
Man 3 years ago when we hired Manny i was so depressed. I just didn't understand how we passed Mario (or I woulld've settled for someone else good) for Manny. I knew we'd end up where we did. That first year versus FIU was all the indication we needed. But you know what, looking at it now, Mario got 3 years to mature and run a big time program. Did he do perfect? No. Can he still learn more and will there be growing pains? Sure. But he has a chance to build it long term cause hes a great recruiter. And there is a ton of talent here at skill positions and he has the ability to get big boys from outside. So i'm like you, can't believe we are here now. Hope this is the beginning of something great cause I want to go to title games again. That OSU game left a bad taste and we've never had a chance again.
Unfortunately those inbreds are not broke, but it won’t t be a walk in the park for them as before.
He has a recruiting class to salvage.
This! That’s the difference
That’s what I said my 1st time
That’s how fast I was on my 1st time
Not sure I’m prepared for Miami usos
