Now we return you back to the handwringing posts about Tucker.

I don’t understand the whole never coached West of Chicago. You do understand that as HC, he isn’t the one that initiates recruiting? That’s on the recruiting coordinator and assistants.

I sure hope the HC is in charge of recruiting. He better damn well have a plan.

Involved, absolutely. Set the plan and direction, yup? But the first person to scout, contact a recruit? Nope. That’s what your recruiting department is for.

There is no separate "recruiting department." Tucker needs to have a recruiting plan with the assistants he hires and he runs the operation. Assistants may do most of the work, but Tucker will run every facet of recruiting. As part of that, he damn well better have a set recruiting criteria in mind when hiring assistants.

You are saying exactly what I’m saying. Nothing different. He’s not the one out on the trail. It’s his AC doing that.

This.

Plus there is AD staff assigned to the football program that do work supporting the recruiting effort. Their efforts are very important. But they take their marching orders from the Head Coach. This is not like the NFL with a scouting department, GM and president who work independently of the HC.

I am just saying the head coach is a lot more involved (or should be) than you implied. In terms of scouting and contact, he will have plenty of communication with recruits.
 
I hope Tucker becomes a leader of men, a pillar in our community, a father figure to our players. I want him to instill discipline and toughness in the team. And mostly I hope he steals all of Georgia's recruits. Let's rob those mother ****ers blind.

Yeah, I remember all those stories about Jim Harbaugh climbing trees and **** with recruits. My impression is that you gotta get pretty involved to get top talent.
 
Rick George mentioned recruiting in the post firing presser for how CU can go up. Rest assured he understands the importance.
 
I get what Duff is saying, in terms of how it never felt like MM took full ownership of recruiting, and thus we got decent players, maybe even good ones in 2017, but no where near the players that Tucker has got, and should get moving forward. I just love that we are going to go in a completely 180 degree direction and I am pretty sure that Tuckers planning for recruiting will come from within the walls of the Alabama's and the Georgia's of the world. I am pretty sure they have good plans we can follow (steal)

I actually think that having Tucker be mostly plugged into the midwest and southeast is just fine in relationship to Line recruiting. Everyone agrees that the P12 is not getting enough beef and power on the OL and DL, so if Coach Tucker can recruit us some guys from Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, and other parts, maybe we can make some serious improvements at those spots. Colorado is not that different a landscape from Georgia or North Carolina, so if they come, they will like it. Atlanta to Denver is a direct flight.

We are gonna Tuck the PAC12 Up!
