If Joseph was smart he would have gone to LSU. It's going to be equally as hard to pull kids from Louisiana and Texas to Nebraska as it was from Tennessee. Their family will never see them play at Nebraska, who now plays in the Big Ten.
With that being said, we need a RC with ties to Virginia, NC, SC, Georgia and so forth. Joseph leaving could be big, because it will get us out of TX/LA and open the door to states closer to Tennessee and thosethat have given us the most talent in the past that resulted in a strong program for UT.
