[QUOTE="dressedcheeseside, post: 197571, member: 77"] Here's my recipe for repeated success: (copied from another thread) [INDENT][I]The only way programs like GT can perform at a high level with consistency is to have very little attrition, very few injuries, very few misses in recruiting and to red shirt religiously and have most guys stay all 5 years. That way, you always have a crop of quality upperclassmen and no glaring holes in your roster. The upperclassmen part is essential at GT for two reasons: a) because we typically have to develop "project" kids and that takes time, and b) the precise nature of our offense demands experience. It's still a delicate balancing act because the less you turn over, the less you can recruit, so classes are always small. This makes it doubly important to recruit to your specific needs each year as far as evening out the classes and filling out positions equitably.[/I][/INDENT] To add, I think Roof has been hampered a great deal by bad luck attrition and recruiting misses (prior to his arrival) on the DL. He's had success with his schemes at other programs, namely Penn State, when he's had better talent. Getting better talent is a process because first you have to recruit it, then you have to develop it. He's only been here a couple years so the jury is still out.
