[QUOTE="doneagain, post: 130841520, member: 1396145"] I wouldn’t say the scholarships have been wasted on transfers because we have gotten some good players who truly helped. He just focused too much on getting transfers as a bailout on the lack of effort he put into recruiting high school players. With the transfers, he just looked at what spots he had open and thought he could find someone at another school desperate to get a starting spot or in need of a new home for personal reasons and basically told them they would most likely come in and be the starter right away at a power 5 school. I think Dana looks at the Ed Oliver situation and thinks it must be easy to convince local Houston 5 star talent to sign with Houston. Oliver was an anomoly and not the norm. The big talent in Houston is still gonna go to SEC and B12 schools. I think Dana saw the writing on the wall at WVU as was eluded to in the article and knew he was probably gonna struggle this year if he stayed at WVU. Most likely he would have been let go, and Shane Lyons could then bring in his own guy.
