I know everyone is excited that landing Wilson should also get us Freak, but can anyone tell me about the coaching/recruiting ability of Wilson? Thanks

From volquest:

quote:

"I really wouldn't say overlooked, but I think he deserves more credit because at the beginning of the year, the receiver corps was suspect. It was, 'Oh my God, the receiver's not in the right spot. Crompton's overthrowing them. Whose fault is it? Whose fault is it?' Now you barely see drops by the receivers. You see big-time plays by Denarius (Moore). Big-time blocks by Marsalis (Teague). Plays by me and Quintin (Hancock). As a corps, we're coming together and we're becoming one of the, I think, one of the best receiving corps in the nation. And all credit is due him."

So what makes Wilson stand out as a position coach?

"He's really strict, believe it or not, but he likes to have fun as well. But when we're between these lines, it's all about business," said Jones, who leads the team in both catches (41) and receiving yards (610). "And when you mess up, it don't matter if you're the captain or the youngest cat, he's going to get onto you. No matter what. He's going to be yelling and just pound it in your mind that you've got to do it right. And he's very specific. And we bought into it. Once we realized that every inch count, every yard count, it's starting to pay off."




Also, he coached a few 1000+ yd RBs at Ole Miss and USM.

If I remember right Wilson was the reason 5 star WR Deandre Brown turned down LSU for Southern Miss.

I know several players that played for Ole Miss when Wilson and Ogereon were there. Apparently it was the running joke on the team that Ogereon pulled him out of NOLA high schools and Wilson was his little do-boy. They said whatever went wrong on offense at practice you could hear "WILSON"!!!!!!!! from O and little Frankie would come running and heal up and O would start ranting. Wilson would then go jump somebody's arse..pretty comical.

Yeah, that's just sour grapes. Cash is right. NOBODY would pull off of a guy like Brown.

he had grade problems but ended up a full qualifier I beleive. We got beat for him. He was in the "LOCK" category all through his JR and SR season.
