Mangino kicked our butts today with no 5 * recruits, how and why;
How because he actually recruited talent instead of reading press clippings. We used to do that. Find the heart and coach em up to team level.
Why could Mangino do this? Out recruit us? He was able to because he is a Coach, not a media made personality like Cally and his staff. Our DB coach is the worst, our whole Defense is worst statisticly as well as how they prepare for each opposing offense.
Mangino knew he had less but gave more and out worked the fat cats that get hired on hype.
Resumes hiring is always dangerous, 1 there are agencies that rotate their own guys, callahan was one of these high profile guys that could get hired on reputation alone, and then sink the ship and start all over again. KU learned from the years of mishires, that agents are making a market for thier own talent and interests.
NU needs to reboot and get back to basics. Bring in a Marvin Sanders, like Okie State brought in Gundy....or A Will Shields or a host of other NU alum who knows the difference between hype and performance, between a winning tradition and a ego centric attitude that never delivers when push comes to shove.
All these boards have been rife with the Recruiting rankings for the last 4 years.....stop right now; and disconnect from these ratings services, wasnt it lemming who sent Callahan that db from chicago that was horrible, pachenko or something like that. Callahan commented in the media he liked to use his connections....BS. He uses the services as plausible deniability for not being a good judge of talent or performance....and so it goes for his entire staff.
The whole rcruiting thing is being orchestrated by writers, not coaches with eyes for talent. Talent needs heart and if you dont believe me, call up Mangino....he works for his standing.....never expected to be awarded it by the hubris of the crowd.
