How does WVU's recruiting class stack up? by CFS
Thursday, February 2, 2012 at 12:20PM I’m happy with the 26th ranked recruiting class (per Scout.com).
Extremely happy.
Sure there have been better and there have been worse, but having followed recruiting more than the average dude and having seen highlight after highlight video of each and every one of these guys… I’m extremely happy.
We tapped into the uber strong states of Texas and Florida… perhaps more than we’ve ever done in the past. We’ve also maintained the close ties in neighboring areas in what Coach Holgs described as “Taking care of home first.”
Mountaineer Athletic Club members and a guest were treated tonight at the Erickson Alumni Center to a great evening of food and drinks capped with a very nice video of each and every recruit that signed a letter of intent today.
And it was impressive.
Holgs was sure to give credit to each and every assistant coach who is out on the road recruiting, and perhaps nobody made more of an impact than Coach Gillespie.
And it didn’t hurt that we had 70-33 to throw in the face of recruits either.
But the fact remains that we will be entering the Big 12 next season (at least per Ollie tonight), and we will certainly have our work cut out for us, but recruiting will no doubt take a bump up as well.
But we want to know what you think!
How do you feel about this season’s signees?
