This is rich.
The two best recruiting classes in the entire history of BC football led BC to consecutive ACC Championship games. Since then, zip. It's not rich. It's math.
It's all recruiting (or lack thereof.) Fuck everything else
Where have Florida State and Miami's recruiting classes gotten them recently?
Nowhere. And you know why? Because (unlike Addazio) their coaches suck on game day. That is why FSU terminated their coach. He had the recruits, but no results.
Clemson had a top 7 class the last two years #1 high school QB in the country, they are looking at consecutive national championships. And Dabo is excellent on game day. Its all math, its all recruiting. If you can't recruit (and Addazio can't) you can't challenge the baby rapists no matter how good you coach on game day. Fuck everything else.
So...it's ALL recruiting, except when it's not.
Except nothing.
Recruiting is fundamental. This school that we both love (albeit perhaps for very different reasons) has not recruited well in 15 years. Its ALL recruiting.
We need to hire a coach that can recruit. Do that first. THEN we can get all pissy and angry and frustrated with the coach when he HAS the really good ACC caliber players but still manages the annual WTF loss like
did. We were angry with Tom O'Brien when he lost because of what he accomplished off the field, an anger we never felt for Spaz or feel for Daz because we already know that these kids are probably giving us MORE than what we should be expecting of them.
Of course the players love Addazio. Of course they do. I would too if I were in their shoes. He gave many of them an opportunity that they were not given by any other power-5 school. Of course they love him. Of course they want to play their hearts out for him. Of course they would only say great things about this coach. He was the one who gave them the chance. I have no quarrel with what the players are doing. They keep their nose clean, they graduate, and they love the school. I just don't expect very much of them beyond 6 or 7 wins a season.
I have been passionately following this football program since a 5'7" QB from Natick was recruited. Its decades chickenman. Ask yourself this, when is the last time you were absolutely mortified with the results on the field because BC lost to a team that they had no business losing? I have felt that way many times. But I haven't felt that way in almost 10 years. And I am not going to get that feeling back until I know this school has hired a coach that can sell BC.
Its all recruiting. And we haven't had any of that in over a decade. I am so numb to this shit that my expectations of the program have been lowered.
