[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 879616, member: 1776"] I've always thought the best path for GT has been something similar to WI. Now note they spend alot more money than we do, but in terms of their football program and how it is run I think it makes alot of sense. They generally recruit between #25-40 most years. That is a good start. Then they have a program that they know what they want to do and they stick to it. Our program doesn't have to be the same as theirs -i'd probably argue against it for GT. But you have to know what you want to be on the field and get everyone on that same page. Then you have to develop the young men you bring in whether they are from HS or the portal. And develop them so they fit your program. Finally you have to prepare well in the week leading up to the game and during the game itself. You have to do all of those things well to succeed and not one is much more important than any other. Realistically GT can pull 4-5 4* in a good year. GT is never going to pull double digit 4* and has never come close. CGC has improved recruiting somewhat but let's not overstate it. His best class was a borderline Top 25 class and none of his others have come close to that. That's closer to the ceiling than the floor. In those 4 areas we haven't really excelled at any of them. In terms of recruiting i'd give the current program a B. In terms of establishing what the program looks like, what they want it to be known for, i'd probably give it a D. I just don't feel like I know what Collins wants to do with the program other than recruit well. In terms of player development i'd also say a D. Haven't really seen very many players develop yet (part of why we are so heavy in the portal). The question you have to ask here is if you believe players that have come in from HS have not been developed well, what makes you think the players coming in from the portal will be developed any better. This is something i'm hoping all the coaching changes will help improve. In terms of game prep and coaching i'd probably give an F. We have look unprepared on the field and we don't seem to adjust well as the games progress. [/QUOTE]
