The sentiment around his recruiting has been ā€œhe doesnā€™t like doing itā€, which is setting a tone for everything thereafterā€¦ and ā€œHe takes excessive flyers on athlete projects.ā€

I think itā€™s fair to point out that this track record was while at Temple and Baylor where getting elite athletes isnā€™t super easy. He out-recruited his predecessors at both schools. His precedent of nabbing T&F studs stems from the reality that it was his best path to getting athleticism on the field.

Like many have already said ITT that this is a transition class and Iā€™m not ready to make sweeping judgements around his tactics. Iā€™d err on the side that if he got to choose from a T&F stud and an elite athlete with football skills already heā€™d choose the latter. He just didnā€™t have the option to do so in the past.
