It’s easy to make time for recruiting when you feel as though you don’t need to concentrate on the four and five stars that other schools do. give those 2 and 3 stars all the love because, “they are under the radar”. Let’s see how that works.
Little early for this take don't ya think? Look at the current recruiting rankings. They resemble nothing very close to where things will end up. Most 4-5 stars haven't committed yet. Although I hear you on your overall premise and you might be right, let's tap the brakes a little and see how things shake out.
That said, I do think if Rhule is going to die on the sword of developing 3 stars long term, it's not going to work to get us to championship level football. But, if it's a stepping stone to get us to winning seasons and grow long term toward getting more 4-5 stars, then it's a good strategy. Maybe the only option he's got honestly.
