Are you somehow saying having great recruiting classes is a bad thing?

Not what I got. I think he's trying to say that top recruit classes aren't shite without a decent coaching staff to develop them. Correct me if I am wrong OP

I think what he was saying is one of the reasons not to fire Miles last year was the great recruiting class we had lined up and the want not to mess it up.

No. I am saying that wasting good to great recruiting classes and 4&5 star athletes by not utilizing their talent and by failing to appropriately coach them up from their high school levels of raw talent is at best unwise, and at worst, well...

On the other hand, a lot of good coaching can make up for the lacking stars. Most recent case in point: LSU (then #5) versus Wisconsin (then unranked). Who has the best athletes? Who was better coached?
