Well they haven't been trying to go cheap. From people that would likely know the Baker money was real. Sumrall was/is making 3 million i believe.


Can’t strike out on all top targets. You have to be willing to pay what it takes.

Yes, I know. Some of our fans believe it. If Lane fires him, we are doomed. Nevermind the reality that Frank hasn’t been the recruiter people make him out to be for a long time.

They're not meeting expectations somewhere. If I had to guess, it would be NIL.

I would say in the day of NIL and Rev share a 'good recruiter' is more about the checkbook than a coach.

If it’s Frank Wilson, at Tulane he’d have to go into the weeds for mid-major recruits and he may or may not have the connections to do so nowadays

Like instead of going to Karr and talking to Richard Anderson he’d have to scout them. He won’t beat out P4 programs for guys he used to recruit. He’d have to go to programs he didn’t go to before.

Mack withdrew likely because we told him we weren't hiring him.


Wondering if maybe this guy just doesn’t interview well. Seems both Memphis and Tulane backed off of him pretty quick

Do they have anybody on staff to promote??? I’ve read that Sumerall didn’t take his coordinators to Florida. Could they be on the short list of easy hires.

ts almost shocking how bad he did at UTSA.....you know with all of his great recruiting lol.
It"s not that shocking. He's not that good of a coach and doesn't have the management, organizational or promotional skills needed to be a HC. FW is strictly a "Used Car Salesman" recruiter.
