a different way of asking the question

Arkansas has 19 great commitments
Michigan has 17 great commitments

Its not going to destroy their program if they don't immediately get a Coach. This will be a very negative drag on SMU however if we can't recruit until January 8.

On the other hand, if they don't get their new coach soon, those great recruits might decide they don't want to wait to see who the next coach will be and decide to commit elsewhere...it is possible...right?

Once again and for the record, you can put me down:

1) It will take time

2) It will be worth the wait

fine, but credibility means something on this forum. You just showed up. Where have you been the past 7 years? If you have been here through all of the other coaching changes, why did you change your name? Not willing to really go on record? you just found the internet? you just came to SMU as a first year student? c'mon and why will it take time if this thing is "in the bag" bro?

The only way someone is credible to me is by being on the record.

You are clearly on the record for we messed this up and will not get a good hire.

Time will tell who is credible.

I did not say we would not get a good hire, challenge you to find a quote where I said any such thing. I still expect a good hire. Never said otherwise. If you notice, I said there is more than one good hire. Barnett, Mason, Bowden, Gill and several others would be good hires. No reason we can't get one. What we have messed up is the PROCESS and had a negative effect on public relations and recruiting in the process. two very real things.

what makes us think that more time translates into a better coaching hire? More research or what? Seems like wishful thinking to me.
