[QUOTE="cuttysark, post: 152471, member: 1578"] The best part of the Gotsis recruiting story IMO was that it all came about because of a former player CPJ had at Hawaii back in the 80's who recommended that he take a look at Adam. These are the types of connections that show what strong relationships Johnson has developed over his 35+ years in this profession. A former player referral of sorts has to be the highest compliment one can bestow on a prior Coach. This is the reason all of the hype around "stars" recruiting gets blown way out of proportion. Tell me that with all of his POY awards that AJ Gray isn't a 5 stars talent? I'll trust long time Coaches like CPJ and CTR to find players the old fashioned way through hard work and connections as opposed to some know nothing bestowing stars onto a HS kid. Now if we can find some more kids like Adam Gotsis playing "America Gridiron" in Australia; American Samoa; and New Zealand imagine where this program can end up. Heck I'll take Rugby or Australian Rules Football players and maybe even a "2 stars" kangaroo right now if they can play the NCAA game of American Football. Who knows, maybe Gotsis is already starting a pipeline of talented recruits to GT. [/QUOTE]
