There are a lot of recruiters highlighted on the show, there is one Sun Belt one.

Fun to watch, but a couple of those poor boys featured don't have much at all going on upstairs. Has to be quite an uphill climb for many of them.

I watched it is was reallly good. The Coach is a little over the top he is gonna have a heart attack if he does not dial it back some. Reminded me of Brian Kelly.

The coach was ridiculous. I understand it's his livelyhood but almost fighting a ref? Arguing for minutes with a ref when up by 30 points? Getting up in a players face because his attitude is a bit off? Does that really help anything? Hell no.

I guess either the TV people wanted him to put on a show or he thought he'd play hard ass since he knew he'd be on TV

Overboard for me, but they stunk before he got there now they have 3 NC's. Maybe his jerkness progressed with the NC's.

I thought the head coach was very disappointing. He's clearly able to recruit well and pull out great performances but came across as hypocritical and not as concerned about his players as people as he let on. Coaches don't have to be role models, but these are kids that especially need a consistent message, and he failed to deliver. That goal of "tough love" isn't a free pass to act however you want and think it's helping someone else.

I do realize that reality shows are edited to tell a specific tale, though, so I hope there's more to him than what we saw.

Either way, very good show.
