[QUOTE="Sideways, post: 328897, member: 2451"] Well, its like Coach Johnson says: "They all came highly recommended." Its funny but Tech gets about as much out of its players as any program in the country when you consider the recruiting rankings. I think we do a good job of being selective in who we go after and developing players once they get here. Lynch is a good example. Certainly not highly recruited but that son of a gun gets loose on a big play running or catching the ball just about every game. In other words, he just makes plays. Our A backs are often good football players in high school but not what conventional offenses are looking for (especially the smaller ones). We do have a smattering of former big time high school backs like JJ Greene, and Qua but often they are like Godhigh or Tony Zenon from here in Albany. He was a star at our local private school powerhouse but most big schools didn't want him because he was small and did not have truly blazing speed. Well, we saw how that turned out. He was a fine player for us and never gave a moment's trouble. "Diamonds in the rough" as Boomer would say. [/QUOTE]
