[QUOTE="Deleted member 631370, post: 1374268"] My concern is that recruiting only gets more difficult as time goes on and losing becomes the norm. Brad Underwood is not a great recruiter. I think he can be "good enough", but now he's really up against a wall. It's easy to sell a kid on joining a brand new system with a lot of hope and optimism ahead of us. It's tougher when the team implodes and a full-blown rebuild is ahead of us. The elite recruits usually don't want to be a part of a total rebuild. They want to come in and win right away. I'm really, really worried about recruiting. And as such, I'm really, really worried about the future of this program. [/QUOTE]
