ESPN posted a story quoting the Oklahoma State AD comments about Mike Gundy saying, "He's really matured into a difference maker as a coach."
Sounds good, but then he followed that with, "I would approach recruiting a little differently than he does. I'd want to finish higher in those recruiting rankings than we consistently do. I think that ultimately puts a ceiling on what you're able to achieve."
"I would just say, 'Mike, you've got to change your thinking on recruiting a little bit.' That would be all. I think sometimes we settle when we don't have to. But I'm not out there recruiting, and I have no idea how to recruit football players."
Not a good statement from your AD. With Pruitt's recent success, I hope we don't have to see Fulmer making a similar comment about stepping up the recruiting activity.
