A cookie cake is a nice thought but the decorating looks rushed. Obviously, a recruit isn't gonna say "Yeah, in the end I choose Kansas over USF because the cake was fugly." However, it seems to be Athletics' MO to do things on the cheap and easy. They need to hire a full time event coordinator or someone with experience in the high-end hospitality industry whose only job is to make sure everything is perfect. You give a kid a lopsided cake and spell his name wrong on his nametag or something and he starts to wonder how bad you actually want him and thinks back to how well everything went at his visit to that big time school. I'm probably being dramatic about it, but it's all in the details; these kids are the bread and butter of our athletic department so they need to be treated like royalty, at least until you get them on the practice fields in the fall and break 'em down. You are being dramatic. A cake is inconsequential in the grand scheme of the recruit's visit. But its yet another example on how there really lacks an eye for detail at USF Athletics. This isn't something that requires an exorbitant budget, it just requires pride and caring in your work. We just don't have the folks in place in the upper level that inspire that pride from Athletics' staff. It sounds like Coach Taggart though is recruiting his pants off. I'm hoping Ward is a USF commit because we need some offensive linemen. Not sure I'd get excited over that. Probably ordered it at Publix, and it was too late to fix a meaningless gaffe. I'm sure no recruit is swayed by a cookie faux pas. It might explain why there were so few touchdowns scored this year.... Well done, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
