Thanks to the remaining coaches on staff for continuing to work hard and recruit. I hope they get a chance to stay with whoever the new HC is.... Got an OL and an Athlete today..

Agreed. Some of them.

Evans and Owens are pretty sharp.........Sharpe is a good recruiter. Don't know Henry very well.

Does anyone think we have a chance to get Swindle the OL from Hayden?

I would like to hope so. If I had a guess it's either going to be Uab or USA.

You capitalized USA but not UAB?

South Alabama is not recruiting Swindle.

Well, kudos to the remaining staff for staying focused and trying to hold things together during the interim. Yeah, yeah, "that's their job, it's what they're getting paid for!"... which is true as far as it goes, but simple self-interest and self preservation might tend to make most people work on their networking and resumes. Holding things in the road and communicating with our commits and the guys we're trying to sign is huge for us right now.

Thanks, guys. We do appreciate it, even if we don't usually take time to say so.

Not to mention that getting commits that may impress the new FBHC might help keep one's job secure.

Well, maybe recent *vacancies* opened up some dollars for recruiting trips.
