OK that makes sense, do you think it’s a Terry/coaching issue or in this era is it harder to identity those 2/3 stars with those measurables?StevensTechU wrote:My concern with OL is that they're over-allocating their time and energy into recruiting 5* talent and under-allocating time into looking for undervalued 2-4* talent. Those kids are fantastic, but you have to be smart about the resources you're putting into them. Chris Peterson had a mantra of "we're going to recruit 3* like they're 5*." They found talent that was on par with 5* but weren't getting a lot of attention, recruited the hell out of them, then when other teams came knocking late in the process it was too late. At some positions, it feels like Oregon is doing the opposite, and is going after Cantwell and Jared Curtis and then scrambles to fill spots with true projects (Trent Ferguson, Bryce Boulton) late. I like that they're recruiting Jax Tanner hard, it shows that they're making sure that even if they don't hit a home run they at least hit a double.
