[QUOTE="ChiCityIllini, post: 1198909, member: 6591"] Can someone help me out on Bellamy? I know he is well liked alum, but the WR play last year left a lot to be desired.... tons of drops, poorly run routes, mediocre blocking.. a lot of people point to his recruiting, but is he really that elite as a recruiter? He failed to close deal on Fairs, Geddis (lost to Kansas and Cincinnati respectively) just this past signing day. Lost AD Walton the year before which was a big fish. We've had a lot of turnover at WR from I believe his recruits - Murdock gone, Barr and Stone-Davis never contributed and both gone now... I am ok with him on the staff going forward, but I don't see it as a slam dunk retention. If Lovie can bring in a WR with NFL/big time college coaching experience and recruiting prowess - I would be all for it. [/QUOTE]
