[QUOTE="Techster, post: 46938, member: 360"] I'm with Eric on this one. This is an opportunity to bring new blood into the staff and an injection into our recruiting prowess. Recruiting has become a young mans game in this era. The HC is more of a "closer" now, but the assistants are the ones that do the major lifting on a day to day basis...they're the ones out there building relationships with the kids. This is the era of social media and soundbites...coaches have to be able to relate to kids. Not to sound like I have anything against older coaches, but I think Hill is in the twilight of his coaching years. I don't think he has the fire GT needs right now to scour larger areas to mine for kids that fit GT's profile. I don't doubt his coaching credentials, but we need more than just a position coach. We need a coach and a recruiter. Obviously there are older coaches that can still recruit like Coach McCollum. If I'm CPJ, I poll guys from recruiting service analysts and high school coaches on OL coaches on the mid major level who are recruiting "above their weight" and developing great OLs from diamond in the rough type recruits. Give them a high major name like GT to amplify their recruiting. That's the type of coaches I would be after right now. [/QUOTE]
