Think yesterday's is the RB from CM

I'm concerned about the recruiting. I don't get the strategy of recruiting Mass so hard (which has terrible HS Football). We're competing on Mass recruits with Buffalo and Army right now. The RB from CM's only other D1 offer is UMass. That's a problem. Meanwhile, the only Mass kids you actually want are going to eventually end up at Georgia, Michigan & Penn St like they always do.

I am right there with you... if it is 2014. You know... at a point in time where we would also be talking about how valuable BC is to the B10/SEC due to its TV market and cable subscribers.

College sports in general (and football in particular) are in unknown territory. So... whatever you thought was important a couple of years ago isn't. I'd suggest that the only comps for where college sports is headed are International Sports leagues. Some of those leagues have unlimited salaries, no CBAs, no salary caps, no drafts and annual free agency. Think of those weird international basketball conferences. The solution is relatively simple... enact a UEFA promotion relegation system done by the NCAA. The problem is obvious... it takes the power away from the sports conferences (two of which have become significantly more important than the NCAA).

Nonetheless, no one has an effing clue as to how important High School recruiting actually is... mainly because any good players BC gets can be sold to the highest bidder after their first start. Accordingly, I can see a strategy that targets recruits who have a deeper connection to the school/area. Not saying they also share this belief (obviously could be lazy recruiting). Ultimately, I see the sudden college football bubble of the past 30 years popping... leaving teams mostly with Lacrosse-like regional rivalries (so might as well go back to having 60% of the roster from New England).
