I love the offensive staff- lots of great coaches on that side of the ball. It’s funny how the titles work though. We have: an associate head coach, a co-OC/running game coordinator, a co-OC/passing game coordinator, and then an OC... But none of it really matters because our head coach is actually going to call all the plays, LOL. These guys will also definitely recruit better than Hev, Gonzo, and company.

Fountain will be great as the 10th assistant/ST coach- basically a full-time recruiter. We’ll have to wait and see how the defensive staff works out. I’ve heard good things about them individually, but some aren’t exactly proven yet...

I hope we're not neglecting the defensive side of the ball. I'm not interested in turning into Texas Tech.

Someone, hell anyone, calm my nerves about who on this staff can recruit. Wait, let me clarify: Who on this staff can recruit the southeast where double digit IQs reign supreme? And that's the HS coaches. Yes, I realize we had a 17n yankee trying to recruit here for 9 years. That's exactly my point.

My concern too. We will lean heavily on the office squad and Hud for sure. Huff is supposed to be an outstanding recruiter.

We still have our recruiting staff. These guys do the bulk of the work and have the relationships. I think we let OM talk us into believing we have to hire a coach from MS or the south to recruit well, when thats not true. Not to mention I think JoMo is can relate to MS people a lot more that Mullen can. He comes across as a much smoother talker and not arrogant. Also if you need some more assurance, Hudspeth alone can probably outrecruit the previous staff as a whole so there’s that. And I think Marcus Johnson will turn out to be a good recruiter and Huff is ranked as the 4th best recruiter in the country on 247

HUD has recruited here for years. Baker has been here for a few years recruiting. Johnson and Woodson are from here and have recruited the southeast. Huff is an elite recruiter who has spent time in the Southeast. We have an entire office staff dedicated to recruiting this area and building relationships. I think the whole thing is a little overblown- if you can connect with HS players, then you can connect with HS players. Coach O was an elite recruiter everywhere from Louisiana and Mississippi to Southern California.

You need some people in your building who know the area and are familiar with the HS coaches, and I think (hope) we have enough of that. We won’t turn into a top 10 recruiting program, but we should be AT LEAST as good as we were under Mullen- probably better. The offensive staff is a huge step up from what we had in terms of crootin.

And if your concern is that our staff is “too smart,” then I really don’t know what to tell you...

ETA: Also, Scott Fountain has been a really good recruiter in the SEC for many years.

Love this hire! Really feeling great about CoJoMo and the staff he is putting together. I hope we can keep them together for a while.

Just the fact that our program is in a lot better shape than it was years ago and the fact that we’re getting more known in the national scale is going to help recruiting. Add in the fact that our offense should be even better with jo mo and staff. Put all that together with most of our team coming back for next season with a new offensive philosophy should help us for quite a while especially for recruiting in this state.

1. Because they are selling the school/program and not hotdogs with kraut on a street corner

2. Because we need someone who can continue the momentum of making our school known nationally.

3. The assumption that someone from the north won’t taylor his message to fit his recruiting audience isn’t valid.

I do want to maintain the reputation we got through Mullen for developing qbs.

Wins and nfl draft picks will cure everything.
