Get rid of either Banda or Rumph (only have 1 DB coach) and bring Randy to coach LBs so Diaz can focus primarily on his duties as DC (aka game planning)
/would never happen
Banda is the only recruiter we have for the Secondary... Without him, we literally wouldn't have one single DB committed to us & that includes CB's.
Also, Diaz has been the best recruiter we have on Defense... He's terrific at crootin' LB's. Not just 2016 & 2017, but our
#Storm18 LB class is going to be stacked too.
Diaz is a great recruiter, Banda is good & Rumph is absolutely horrendous at recruiting but seems to be a solid Coach...
We just need a better CB recruiter & we'll be fine (On Defense)...
He was edwards recruiter, and he also was part of Hendersons recruitment , idk why yall are giving rumph sh¡t when this is a weak local DB class, rumph is bandys main recruiter btw, we really shouldn't judge him until next year with all the local DBs
Banda was Edwards recruiter & if we get him back it'll be because of Banda...
When CJ decommitted, he called Rumph & told him he was reopening his recruitment...
Collier is being recruited mainly by Banda, Pete said it on the DB target thread that if we land him, the credit goes to Banda.
I can't give much credit to Rumph for Bandy, the kid grew up on the same block as Sean Taylor & if Folden hadn't told his dad he needed to grow an inch, he would've committed to us anyway... Bandy wanted to be here more than anything, the only reason he was committed to Oklahoma was because the previous staff didn't him. No less than a month after we offered him, he flipped & has been solid since.
What you might've forgot, is I used to say the exact same thing about Rumph when it comes to judging him on 2018...
But that's the problem, the 2018 CB is already coming undone with Jobe's imminent de-commitment.
I don't hate Rumph at all, I want him to succeed more than anyone, but he's simply not a great recruiter...
I think he's done a good job at Coaching but his recruiting skills are purely amateur.
The excuse that 2017 is a weak DB class for local DB's just doesn't cut it for me, because A) that's not true & B) if 2017 was a weak CB class in South Fla he should be able to clean house then. Plus, every other program has snatched up CB's from South FL, so obviously they don't think it's that weak this year.
I don't care that none of the AH kids didn't come, I actually don't want any one of them except Tyson Campbell (who has Clemson as his leader right now, despite saying Rumph is practically like a father to him)...
But the fact we haven't landed basically any kids except Bandy is an absolute failure.
South Fla is stock loaded with CB's & every single one of them want to play for UF or any other program but ours, that's unacceptable.
I'm not trying to unreasonably bash Rumph, but we have to be honest... He hasn't done a good job recruiting, simple as that.
