Trust in his Ability to land top 5 talent and not push the numbers issue so early in the cycle.

If numbers are plentiful late in the process recruit under the radar kids that are committed elsewhere. This method has been very beneficial in the past for our roster

You realize that you are saying that in order for us to avoid breaking promises to kids, we should convince kids to break promises to other schools.

Did you read the article? You stopped the quote at "could be the next one." Nice tease, even if it wasn't on purpose.

Did you read my response above? It wasn't there when I posted it. He edited it.

Edit: I see your response that you saw my response. Carry on!

Lots of talk on our board about the morality involved in recruiting. Would you rather Butch stay true to his word at all times with commits and perenially land top 20 classes, or have him lie, cut, and cull his way to a top 5 classes?

I'm not at all convinced that it's impossible to both stay true to his word and recruit at an elite level.

It's very possible. Had Butch not reached on Hart, Marshall, and Okonya so early. Then finished the class with say Warrior, Kongbo, and Byrd, the class would have been just fine and not had the negatives tied to it. It's very possible.

Picture this:

"Defending Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning, who retired after winning his second Lombardi Trophy last season, was on the sidelines in Atlanta watching as his alma mater dominated Alabama 34-10 to win the SEC Champiosnhip and secure a place in the CFB Playoffs."

Impossible Leb. Recruiting changes daily. Players change their mind, coaches leave, and so on. At the end of the day you have to take the best players whenever you can. All schools do it and have to in order to compete and keep up. It's not the worse thing that'll happen to them; that's what I would tell my son.

CBJ hasn't been in a position to recruit at an elite level before coming to UT. So he takes early commits that get recruited over. He'll probably take fewer of them each year, especially since we are no longer able to backcount and are at the scholarship limit. Every elite program processes players to make the numbers work. The system is far from perfect.

I love Peyton manning and I'd love to see him ride off into the sunset as a Super Bowl champ, but for anybody who says Peyton manning has a chance against the Carolina panthers just hasn't been watching the nfl this year. The panthers just put up 49 points against the second best team in the nfl. The cards defense is top 5. Carolina's d is legit too. Before Peyton was injured he had 17 interceptions to just 9 tds. Take Carolina and the points if you're a betting man
