He shouldn't be waiting to be called in, he should be in the recruiting co-ordinators ear pretty much constantly asking what we need or even better, here are the guys I'm planning to contact this week, and these are the ones I'm planning to contact next week - do you have anyone I need to add to this list?
How much harder is it to text a recruit in Alabama than a recruit in Indiana?
I ask because Polian claimed Kelly couldn't be as active as coaches whose teams only recruit in a couple of states or regionally whereas ND recruits nationally.
This was actually the weakest defense imaginable. I'd be very surprised if it was spontaneous and not dictated from above.
I did find it awkward that "Coach Kelly's Program" or "Coach Kelly's Process" or the credit goes to "Coach Kelly" was repeated over and over again by all the assistant coaches.
I think it is less kissing the ring, or job security, and more rallying around their head coach that they believe in and are loyal to and think has been unfairly disparaged over his recruiting recently.
Either case, it was a bit unseemly.
the “ he’s great” statement. According to the different blogs we finished anywhere from 9th to 11th.
