[QUOTE="Jean-Baptiste Rochambeau, post: 30643, member: 1017"] Ole Miss does not face the recruiting problems that we do. True, there are not as many quality athletes to go after in Mississippi as there are in Georgia, but Ole Miss has not had to fight an in-state juggernaut like UGA for decades. Vanderbilt loses in the recruiting wars with Tennessee. Tulane could not compete with LSU. It is remarkable that we have as many victories as we have had given the inequities of the recruiting landscape. CPJ came in saying we would recruit the state better--we have failed, but it is extremely difficult. Georgia has so many great high school players that so many programs focus on our area. We are Rutgers in New Jersey fending off Penn State, Syracuse, Notre Dame, and all the B1G. We are Illinois, coming in fourth or fifth or sixth for players in our own state. I really can't see that changing much. We need to cast a wider net. We don't need 20 four star players every class. I think there are 5 or six BETTER players that we can get every year, that we aren't getting now. Five or six more stars in each class would make a big difference. Now the question is, do we necessarily need to change the head coach to get those recruits? [/QUOTE]
