Obviously Dabo is a great recruiter but does he have a weakness in evaluating QB talent? It's a mixed bag, Trevor Lawrence and the QB before him that played for the Texans were good ones obviously, but some of the others did not have the mental part it seems. Any thoughts?

Some of that recruiting prowess may fade now that everyone (with money) can pay players. For now he is ahead of the curve due to Clemson's recent reputation, and they have competitive NIL money, but he doesn't have as much of a recruiting advantage as he had before. He needed to hire Riley to try and offset the new disadvantage. We'll see what Riley without Duggan is like. Riley is a good OC, but the Big 12 is an offense driven league. I would not put the great label on him yet.

Tajh Boyd was real good QB, Bryant was good, . Collin Harper was not big time recruit, Dabo offered and Harper developed to point he played good for them
