We weren't going to win head to head initially for players with a P4 scholarship offers, and sometimes not even for walkons. 20 more ships per P4 is not that much impact considering how many players there are. We get homesick kids and kids that just want a change and more access to the field. It's the P4 players #85-105 that we can still target and who will soon tire of being just practice fodder at a P4, even on scholarship. NT offers better opportunity for those players.
Just think also of all the FCS, Dll, JUCO, etc level players there are too we can still attract. I believe Morris has a good eye for transfers that have interest in us. He just needs to overhaul the defensive side for next season.
This isn't about missing any deadline, this is about underlying issues in the staff and/or the department. We are 5 days out from the season starting and are still missing 2 games from the schedule, 349 other teams have managed to complete their schedules while we still have not. How is that acceptable? Well run programs do not have this happen.
By competitive I mean good solid programs, I've already named the types of programs we should be bringing in on the 3rd post of this page. Not only are we not bringing those programs in, we are waiting to the last days to bring in teams like Wayland Baptist. Something is not as it should be here, and whatever it is needs to be addressed.
