But he does seem to be an asset in recruiting.



he does? What'd he do besides get Patrick Peterson's little brother to be a soft commit over 3 years?

Let's see, he didn't get us put on probation, reduce our recruiting visits & efforts, & force us to submit to scholarship reductions.

So, while he may not have reeled in any big-timers, he definitely didn't take scholarships away from the program or put us on probation, while also developing our talent & not exactly scaring off top-flight wide receiver recruits from signing with us, either. Kadron Boone was a high qualty 4-Star kid out of Brantley's HS who was a bigtime recruit that signed with us over UGA because of Gonzo's arrival here.

So perhaps its a case of him not doing any harm compared to the last guy in his position in regards to his attempts to get kids on campus. Our cupboard isn't exactly bare in the WR department, & I've already provided examples showing that he's done a good job in developing the talent on hand. Some of it very green & inexperienced.

Avery, Patrick Miller, Jerrard Randall was almost entirely him iirc, Kadron Boone.

He's plucked at least one kid from Florida every year he's been here.
