[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 581762, member: 265"] This comes up a lot, but I don't really think it is true. Think of the players Tech lost to injury or transfer in the last few years of Paul's time: C. J. Leggett, Jalen Ratliff, Matthew Jordan, Dedrick(!) Mills(!), Marcus Marshall, Chris Griffin, Trey Klock, Eason Fromayen, Gary Brown, Dennis Andrews - and that's just the ones on offense alone that I can remember off the top of my head. We lost a good number of good D players too. That's a pretty good collection of football players right there; plenty of high 3 star and a couple of four star players. And, more to the point, they were extremely well suited to play in the spread option. If a few of them had stayed or survived injury, several of our seasons could have been much different; losing Leggett, Quaid, and Andrews before the 2015 season made a tremendous difference, for instance. Sooooooo … did Paul recruit well? I think so. Did he have some really bad luck with retaining those recruits? I think so. Did this make a difference in our won/loss and how people thought he recruited? I sure do think that. Will Coach do better then Paul in this department? We'll see about that over the next two years or so. This year's class is pretty good, when you factor in the transfers, and we probably aren't through yet. [/QUOTE]
