Because being fat doesn't preclude you from being a good football coach. I'd play for Kansas' Mangini before I'd play for Bret Beilema or Mark Richt. |

He didn't realize the complexity of recruiting people.

I would agree - except the truth is that CW has a bunch of highly rated recruits coming to ND, including a couple that we were chasing hard. And you can't put it all on the ND mystique because they haven't been looking at this kind of class in awhile.
I just don't understand why these kids - or if not them, their parents - can't see the inevitable implosion that is coming. CW has shown little talent for head coaching. He is on a path that could easily lead to a coaching change half way through these kids careers. Why roll those dice when there are so many other stable opportunities? |

well, you just wonder what kind of kids weis appeals to. I mean, if recruits get a chance to visit with Weis and also with Tressel, and then they ND because of Weis ---- maybe that's a weird kind of young man.
The ND mystique is strong enough that ND recruits in SPITE of CW. I doubt that he adds any appeal to a young man.
Of course, being 1-9 doesn't help either.
