There are many people who know more about the program than I. But for what its worth from a parent that has a son on the team for the past year and a half, it sounds to me that during the season at least, recruitng isn't even a blip on their radar.

Everything I hear points toward a single minded purpose and that is winning the national championship with the current team, the current year. From what I gather, the recruiting happens in the Spring and by then I assume a new coach would be in place to do his own recruiting.

Unless, and I would wish this to be the case, the administration takes the path you mentioned above... the best route and that is to find a way to keep the current staff in place.

Regardless, the season is here. Go Cardinals!
