Message: [QUOTE="Ldandy, post: 4779401, member: 4584"] During Randy 1.0 he was getting in on legit FBS Talent that potentially might have landed at bigger name programs had there been better exposure at the time. As a result, UConn’s talent level was actually better on the field than it was in the rankings. The second time around he could still identify kids, but so could everybody else with their armies of analysts and multiple recruiting services. Due to the prolonged period of losing and a lack of juice around the program, kids with multiple G5/P5 offers weren’t coming. As a result, the classes that were ranked 110+ played like it on the field. JMO but I’m not sure that Mora has the will or resources to build a winning program in the current era. Recruiting is an uphill slog with no conference, bowl ties, or excitement to sell. The portal also is difficult due to $ limitations and options of prospective transfers. This is why I propose a younger staff with a defined offensive system and a plan to recruit to it out of HS and the portal. [/QUOTE]
