But Hite was open about his dislike of modern recruiting. I think that was more about VT's whole recruiting approach being outdated than it was about Hite's dislike of the kids. One thing I will say about Hite is that over 30 years he ALWAYS had an amazing stable of backs with a variety of running styles to choose from, and he usually chose smash-mouth bulldozers. I don't think that approach would work with our system now.
