Fitch, at least, recruited. He was, however, a terrible... and I mean TERRIBLE... offensive coordinator.

How do you justify saying that Albert was not good? Players under his assignment consistently improved. Wujciak, Gutapfel, Landry, Kavalec....Are you simply going by recruiting? Others can handle recruiting. It makes little sense to devalue the Assistants that actually get the most production out of their players.
Albert may not have worked out as DC. We will never know.

Also just a classy thing to say. Is it possible that at BC we teach our players how to be classy and gracious.
Nobody seriously thinks Ben Albert is "one of the greatest" but its a nice sentiment from one of the stars of BC's DLine.

Come on now. I get the BC-maturity line, but that's a strong statement from a player, and I am definitely taking that statement with more weight than some middle-aged posters. When Brown left, I believe Landry simply said something like "we'll be fine." Could've gone the same route with Coach Albert but instead heaped very high praise.
I agree it doesn't look like Albert recruited much (if at all), but on the flip side we have coaches who recruit and cannot coach.
