…about this staff is the recruitment of Billy Ferrell. Old staff didn’t seem to make an attempt at this in-state kid, but it was one of the first moves by the new guys. Since signing, Ferrell has been bumped to a four-star. What were those other guys thinking?
Additionally, his lead recruiters must have been Lunney and Scott, who are the only two hold-overs. So, who was it from the last staff that kept giving these guys the red light? I was in the boat that wanted to keep CBB, but I’m kind of glad to eat the crow now and not later.
RD don’t be ruining the narrative that the old staff just had no idea what they were doing in regard to Ferrel and Bishop, it will just drive some people crazy.
You have inside knowledge on this? My opinion is that the kid from Rockwall was not really solid to us, and Bishop would have received his offer and he would take it because he wanted to be a Hog.
He had an offer fro the previous group and chose the bulldogs instead. CBB staff actually went after him fairly hard. Bishop said something to the effect of feeling that Mullen’s group would develop him better
