While yes, I think it's great to offer these blue chip athletes and go after them, I think it's more important to go after the athletes we have a better shot at. Players like Jackson have offers from everyone in the country already. The chances of us getting players like this are slim. Maybe we can get 1 or 2 which would be great, but CWT should be focusing all of his efforts on the borderline 4 star and high 3 star guys. UF, FSU, Miami and the other big dogs will most likely get the Jackson's of the world every year. Put all of your effort on the other guys, like our first commit of the 2014 year (Jimmy Bayes). Just my opinion.

IMO, Taggart should be focusing on the best players that the staff can get that fit the system.  The stars will take care of themselves.  Boise is averaging 2.5 stars and they've done just fine.

I was just about to write something to that effect.  Make the 4 and 5 star guys tell you no.  Don't settle because people have placed you in some sort of caste system,

Oh I agree. If he has a realistic shot at a player like Jackson, then pursue him hard. I just think it's better to utilize their time on recruits we have a better shot at that are still studs.

He'll recruit them until they say no. Then he'll recruit the moms to sway the kids until they say no.

As I mentioned earlier, it is extremely important for Taggart to get one of the local TOP players to give us an early verbal. If Jackson was serious when he tweeted that everyone should sign with USF, then he would be the perfect candidate for Taggart to target. In the past I can only think of one such player who gave us an early verbal J Fayson and he eventually signed with Florida. When he left Florida he wanted to transfer to USF, but they wouldn't release him to us.
