Alante supposedly has a good shot to be back by summer. I think there’s quite a few guys who it is easy to say will leave. Not trying to be mean but guys who were reaches. E. Johnson, Hardy, Tagoloa, Morton, Malcolm, & Hardy II I would suspect leave.
Man that is a lot of wasted star power and wasted recruiting opportunities. It would've been better if we had spent time on 2 star guys who worked their tale off just to be here and had time to play. Of course Frost wouldn't have developed those guys either - I believe Rhule would have.
There obviously has been some how a lack of leadership from coaches to motivate and coach these players. But, at the same time, I feel like there is a lack of culture within the players. At some point, this many players with decent enough talent to contribute, someone needs to step up and be a leader within the room to work and get better and hold others accountable. I feel that at some point, there has to be some blame to go back on the group of players themselves.
That is all true as well. If players are just in it for the 'pay check' they risk nothing and becomes a losing culture. I hope we see purge of any existing players who aren't buying into the new program. Would like to see the Unity Council in full force again.
Eh, I said this months ago on this thread and got chewed out for it but I think this breakdown is a little too selective and not even cracks the top 5 of what frosty failed to do. Sure, the HS recruiting needs to be better for wide outs but Wan'dale panned out just fine, we just misused him (because our RB room and run game was so atrocious and one of the groups frosty and staff really f'd up with). The 2nd thing somewhat wrong with this breakdown is its based off the college football world from 5 + years ago- sure, ideally you want to hit on hs recruiting but the transfer portal adds an element not captured in this breakdown and we've largely done pretty damn well in this area in the WR room (Toure & palmer).
