WMU has almost always recruited strongly. Last year and this year especially. But it takes more than talented players to translate into wins on the field. You have to have the schemes that bring out the best in the talent you have, that is where we lacked the last few seasons.
Cubit and his staff have done a good job recruiting, but now we need to correct our offense and defense strategies or all that talent will be wasted. If we can do it we'll be a team to beat next season. If not, it'll be more frustrating losses.

we should be recruiting European talent for our kicking game...think how good we would be with European kickers....or a decent kicking game for that matter...
Even as a 75 year old, I could probably slap the snot out of many of you.
A silly remark, perhaps unnecessary, but true.
John Potter is a talented kicker. His numbers are not bad. Many of you have not done the search of MAC kicking statistics for 2008 and 2009, previously suggested by me. Too bad! The youngster has a strong leg.
His very real abilities have not been fully utilized. That is not my fault.
The politics of the situation were, and remain, quite beyond my understanding.
