Limited usefulness in this, but I thought it was at least worth a look.
Farrell ranked the new Power 5 head coaching hires on how effectively they'll recruit. Bronco came in 9 out of 13. Says he's a great coach but doesn't have enough East Coast connections and will play second fiddle in state to Tech.
For what it's worth, he ranked Fuente 6th and Durkin 5th.
We've all felt the region change will hurt his recruiting initially, but I think Mike's being extremely short sighted here. Bronco brings an energy that will attract recruits and befriend high school coaches. And he'll bring in kids from regions UVa hasn't traditionally recruited. Winning will solve a lot.
So he's got some building to do, but we're not going to be nearly as bad off as Mike thinks. He didn't earn his paycheck this time.
