[QUOTE="dressedcheeseside, post: 376320, member: 77"] I agree with all of this. I think recruiting is like gambling in Vegas. Every kid we offer/sign is a gamble on their ability to "pan out." Evaluation is of utmost critical importance. We must evaluate them on several fronts beyond athleticism and scheme fit, we must evaluate on character and academic ability (GT fit). Missing on the last two criteria have seen several good/great players not make it at Tech. Now, with the promised increase in recruiting staff, we can make strides in both improving evaluation [I]and[/I] increasing the pool of prospects that pass all three levels of evaluation. The second part is critical, too, as we won't get all our first choices. We must have second and third choices waiting to target if our first choices go elsewhere. Those backup plans have to on par with the top choice. Most of the time, there's too big a drop off. [/QUOTE]
