If you read what i write then u may understand. Not one single time did i say dont recruit kids from down here. We are always gonna get most of our class from Florida and South Florida. The higher rated players down here more than any other area have been playing games with Miami and waiting late to commit, sometimes silently then signing days its a different story. If we get highly rated players from other states instead of some projects and lower ranked players we been taking, it will improve our rankings, and i know these kids watch that and also, let other players know, hey spots are limited.It's also extremely hard to assemble a top-5 class with a bunch of highly rated kids from out of state. Only the elite programs are able to do that. We can do that when we're winning and can offer more than their local programs.
You just said yourself that kids generally go to school in the areas where they're from. So you want to reach for highly ranked kids in Georgia, Texas, Louisiana etc... When those same kids are already being recruited by Alabama, LSU, Georgia, Clemson, Florida State, Texas, etc... And we're trying to pull them away from those local powerhouses. (while they're winning)
We can't pull kids from our own backyard who are being recruited by Alabama, but you want to chase kids FROM ALABAMA who are being recruited by Alabama?
How's that work?
I don't wanna hear squat about having to win 11 games or whatever. Jimbo goes into Texas A&M he starts loading up on players, Mack Brown goes into UNC they start loading up on players, they aint win 11 games to get those players.
Even Randy Shannon got the #1 class coming off 5-7.
We went to the Orange bowl under Mark Richt won 19 games in 2 years, i didn't see this great break through of top 5 recruiting class. We got stunted on by Tyson Campbell, Jobe and Surtain, who Rumph coached.
Miami has been **** on by alot of kids because they leave themselves at their mercy, when we are a national brand that can recruit like USC and ND.
Funny how we couldnt get any DBs but TRob shows up haven't coached a game but players filing in.
