I don’t really watch UH football, so what is the football teams staple?
Build a culture, start winning and better recruits will come

Must be a talent, now going to the SEC
He was already a top 1000 recruit.
UCF, SMU, Cincy, and Memphis are just recruiting at a level that we can’t right now. For whatever reason.

No excuses for that…they have the same obstacles we do.
We need to be more organized and efficient like the basketball program.
The administration has done their part with coaches salaries and facilities.
Yep. Every previous coach from Briles to Applewhite were able to bring in good recruits with way less resources than Holgerson

Why has this board become another manifestation of Dunning-Kruger?

You people are so fricking humorous !!!
One kid of unknown quality, gets shown the $$$ by a P5 program and suddenly we cannot recruit and it leaves to an entire discussion on this Summer Doldrums board !!

I never said we can’t recruit. We just can’t recruit at SMU, UCF, or Cincy’s level. Memphis is a little ahead of us. But not much.
But Cincy, SMU, and UCF are kicking our ass on the recruiting trail.

He impressed them enough while at their camp to get a offer
What do you mean my dollars?
Edit: so every kid being approached by the Coogs n doesn’t commit but does commit w P5 was shown some $$. That’s hilarious & humorous!

Gotta keep them. Only way to climb the ladder. I will never think you can just live off the portal. Too much rubbish involved and will they fit in .

The portal is here to stay, but my opinion is that if you live by the portal you will die by the portal. Similar idea as going heavy JUCO to me. Again JMO.

Basically my opinion also. If the recruiting doesn’t step up asap they will stay middle of Standings in AAC. And I sure don’t put all this on CDH, but he wears the Top Hat n will take most of the heat. But the people around him have to be strong and on these potential recruits in most positive way possible. Doesn’t help one bit when a few coaches bailed on him this off-season after committing to the program. Need some consistency from coaching standpoint also imo.
You did see that it was a$m…right.
The second most penalized school in the state of Texas…they aren’t paying the swimmers !

I do not understand why people are blaming coaches etc. The young man committed to UH as I understand. Then, according to his own posts, he decided to go to ATM after some visits. Man, the onus is on that misguided young man. He should’ve stayed with the Coogs! Not the coach’s fault. Jeez. I hope he likes College Station. I know I don’t. I just don’t understand half of the posts here. Bizarre.
