I think the real question is do we think JJ can produce a better class in a couple weeks vs. what we had before. The answer is simply HE!! YES!

Ok, I'm paraphrasing, but I think thats about what he said on it. I was excited. Though he also said that he was going to go mining for diamonds in the rough.

Just to put as reference...Randy Shannon had about a month and a half and pulled in about 12 kids in that time...including turning three from other programs.

And he was an unknown coach (in terms of HC ability).

JJ can pull in the kids that are debating between Rice, UH, UTEP, TCU, UNT, etc....he isn't going to get the kids from Texas and hte like

Hell, if he can grab Bell and Christianson from BC, that would shore up our secondary.

Too bad neither can play DL lol.

my thought is that he might be able to land some of the kids he recruited but didnt want to play out in the middle of the ocean

The UH Commit from Katy (QB from State Champs) would be a nice start!

Any way we can get a list of commits that are headed to Hawaii? As well as lists of top recruits in the Houston and Dallas areas that are undecided?
