If we make this move to the MAC our football recruiting philosophy (such as it is) will have to change a bit. Successful recruiting is influenced heavily by the relationships college coaches have with HS coaches. Stockstill is strictly a Florida and Georgia coach. Could he look at us moving to a midwest conference and say to himself "Screw this. I don't have many contacts there and this means I'm gonna have to work to get players now"? The man turns 64 next month and has a nice retirement house down in 30A. This just might be the impetus for him to shut it down on his career. Just a thought.
