Seems like we are giving out offers like candy....
Are we offering highly rated folks or guys we feel like we can get?

It's a numbers game but majority of the offers seem similar, high gpas, good size for their position, and multiple offers from fcs and g5. I like it, flood the market and land as many as you can, no sense in being stingy

Also, if players get somewhere and they are not happy, the relationship established allows them to possibly be welcomed at A&T.

i have no comments on our offers nor new recruits. i'm an "end results" kinda dude. i will not get caught up in offseason activities, let coach brown conduct his offseason however he sees fit. i'll reserve my comments regarding offers and new recruits for when the season starts...

What do you mean by "when the season starts"? Before a down is played? After the 1st games? What?

Seems you would have ro wait until you see them play for period of time...or not play. That could take years, based on redshirt, people in front of them getting all or most of the playing time, etc.

That could take years, based on redshirt, people in front of them getting all or most of the playing time, etc. my point is that i will reserve judgement until i see the "product in a game" and that starts with the "opening day kickoff". from that point forward, i feel that any comments will be justified by what i see on the football field in a real game. anything prior to that requires my eyes and ears being present in the day to day practices and that ain't happenin'. and yes, you can learn "a lot" from the first game. for example, folk got on me last year because i criticized the oc in the very first game cuz i could immediately see that his play calling didn't make any sense. yet, by season's end, almost "everybody" was criticizing the oc. there are no more excuses for this season. coach has been here a full year and signed his own recruits. we should see "immediate" improvement this season on both sides of the line of scrimmage. offense should look better, defense should look better, special teams should look better, and most importantly, we should win far more than just "1 game"...

Gotcha, though I disagree on no more excuses. I'm on the side of giving coaches the opportunity get their own guys in with 3 or 4 full recruiting cycles unless they show little to no improvement (or get worse) after about the 2nd year. Don't know what you mean by win "far" more than just 1 game, but I expect us to win more than 1 game...at least 4.
