Recruiting will continue to tell the story of burned bridges. We burned whatever little walking path we had left when we focused on bringing BB in, instead of suring up other parts of the program. You had a 4* starter and an Elite 11 QB on the roster. Work with those and develop them. Unless you're corny and you can't.
