Got it. I thought he was saying he never played QB. My bad.That doesn't say he played QB his entire HS career.Pretty sure he did.I think he's talking about the recruiting translating to the on-the-field results. If that's the case, then I think that is an unfair parallel to draw as we all know that Bo's first couple of recruiting classes weren't all that stellar. But we've definitely seen the product of his recruiting classes on the offensive side of the ball.We aren't talking about on field results. You started a thread comparing our recruiting to theirs.so are you satisfide with recruiting and on field results
Taylor Martinez: didn't play QB his entire high school career. Was very raw for his first two years, but last year he turned into a more than serviceable quarterback. He only figures to get better this year.
Ameer Abdullah: comes in for Burkhead last year and puts up a 1,000+ yard season.
Kenny Bell, Jamal Turner, and Quincy Enunwa: probably the best WR corp in the Big Ten
So if the results of his classes from have translated to on the field success for the offense, it isn't entirely out of the question that it can do the same now for the defense.
