Just think Terry Wilson, at the time, his recruiting numbers were third best on that oregon team.
And third best as in non starters.
Yup, and now he got the nod to start for Kentucky. You are correct......the more higher rated players you get.....the more attrition you will most likely have.......not everybody gets to start.
Still wish Geb would have toughed out this year. This does put us in a rather perilous position. Younger qbs might stick around in a similar situation with the hope that time is on their side. We'll be better off same time next year.[/QUOTE]
He wouldnt get better coaching, period!
But, looking back at Terry Wilson, one other guy recruited and stuck it out the same class, Justin Hebert, the starter, ranked lower than Wilson going in.
What this staff does with qbs cant be compared to previous staffs, though last staff wasnt bad, and showed potential here n there.
This staff, meaning SF and Verdu, have a long history of many names that make their qbs in the top of other teams at the various levels in which theyve coached.
Their track record could be construed as second to none.
Its TGs to lose, but it doesnt take anything else away fron TG at all, its all I'm saying, and he's not in the Cody Green types we've seen in the past.
Herbert wasnt highly rated, but he was recruited by SF.
So too was Wilson.
The honesty and integrity of SF left Wilson knowing how it was going to be, and he left, not an easy loss,losing a sec starter, but it simply is what it is, and surely not what it ever was here, under our previous staffs, excluding the current previous and then going back to TO.
Everything in between is just one other major reason why theres been no championships.
It was the best thing the previous staff had going for it, and not to derail, they have history in qbs developement and potential.
Other than that, I dont have much more to say positive about that staff.
Anyhow, its not about daddys money spent, not about taking his ball and going home, its about taking his ball and going elsewheres to actually play, and I cant blame him for his desire to do so.
If he had more history, like the many grad transfer guys not sticking with his team, knowing hed still be starting, but only wanted a better team, theres a difference between winning for yourself, and winning for your team.
Last I looked,TG hasnt played a snap for us, and to him, he might not get many for four years,I simply cant blame him.
