Agreed. I’ll add that players don’t evaluate and recruit themselves. Coaches do and we started to have coaching turnover around that time. Brooks, Hobby and Scott, etc. of course, Coach V more recently. Anecdotally, it seems like we have more lack of development and/or players not panning out over the last 3-4 years. That goes back to coaching for me. If we axed 5 or so coaches currently on our staff, none of them would get hired by a top 15-20 program. In their case, it’s all who you know.
yea we need another guy like hopkins or sammy that is a self

starter that already carries himself like he's the best player on the field. Not looking to another player for guidance and help. Sammy could care less who was in front of him when he got here. They asked Deshaun Watson when he got here if he was ok with being backup to Cole Stoudt and Deshaun said "no disrespect but i don't take a back seat to anyone."
Thats the player you have to back and try to find. Not "hold my hand boss" type personalities players. Alpha's. You only need a couple and they'll be the leaders that others feed off of. But right now it looks like a bunch of followers and get along guys.
