[QUOTE="Jacket in Dairyland, post: 374537, member: 1097"] IMHO, the comparison of Tech and UW is fun, but there are so many differences in the respective situations that make it difficult to actually emulate their program. The only obvious similarity to me is that we both have been recruiting to a particular system for a long time. UW has so many majors and can cast a much wider net to get recruits. The UW system translates well for players looking to get to the NFL. Our system, not so much. So we have the situation of looking at players who want to be successful, just probably not in the NFL. Could we do better in recruiting with a different offensive scheme? Maybe? But how does that explain our mediocre recruiting on defense. We keep saying Roof is a good recruiter, and he does seem to get some better players. The D scheme is translatable to the NFL, right? But, when is the last time a D player was DRAFTED by the NFL? So to me, what's keeping our recruiting from being better is more a function of highly skilled, NFL hopeful 4* and 5* *** ( athletic students) not wanting, or needing to work as hard academically as we ask them to. Especially OL, DL and WR. I think we will be better next year just not a lot. Looking at the schedule I see wins of Alcorn State, Bowling Green, Duke, Virginia, UNC. Losses of UM, Clemson, UL and UGA. Toss ups of USF, VT and Pitt. Think we are looking at 7-5, ho hum, mediocre bowl, maybe 8-5, [/QUOTE]
