Well considering last year's class was rated dead last in the MW, and we all saw how this year turned out, I would say that they have an eye for talent. Yes we used mostly players from previous staffs ( at least on offense), but depth was a key factor for us throughout the season, and almost all of those players were new.We dont have to afford Homeruns, but we can surely afford talented D1 level QBs that are jumping into the portal if were trying top send our Freshman of the year packing... I just dont think that bringing in a JUCO QB is going to pan out, theres a reason they're at that level and its very rare for one to actually come out and make an impact. Unless Cam Newton is hiding in JUCO, Id rather find a P5 backup thats in the portal that fits the mold that Marion wants if were sending Maiava packing....
And yeah, on the recruiting and transfer front, the staff has made a few misses... There were players that were supposed to perform and underwhelmed, and there was some analysis to start year like DB being made starter that leaves alot to question if you want to really get into the analysis on recruiting. Not to mention recruiting a QB that wanted to be a track star and as @lobbybuu has said, his commitment to UNLV at the time chased away other prospects who have now said not thanks... Thats a miss
