    That Kliff Kingsbury has never developed an NFL receiver? Let alone to a level of Dante and John?

    Interesting that Lubick is being sent with a babysitter (Hamdan) to visit Ford and McCoy this week. Over the weekend, Malloe chaperoned him on his visit with Puka. The only guy Lubick is seeing on his own is already-committed Taj Davis.

    Either Lubick is heading elsewhere next year or Pete doesn't trust him alone with recruits.

    I thought sending multiple coaches was common? I wouldn’t be shocked if Lubick isn’t here for long. We’ve had two years in a row of shitty WR play.
    In Lubick’s defense, Pease recruited the current group of receivers. Fuller and Baciella have played well given their limited toolboxes. Ty Jones has so far been meh. Evaluators had him as a big HS talent, prone to mental lapses and taking plays off.

    I believe he closed Yankoff?

    Lubick may suck but I’m not ready to go there yet.

    Several thought Huff sucked, too. He’s demonstrated he can recruit the results from the development side—positive—recently kicked in.

    People were skeptical of the Huff hire. He immediately went to work and proved everyone wrong. Not really the same thing.
    Huff had pieces to work with; McGary, Adams, Watty, Hilbers, and full year starter Harris.

    Lubick, not so much.

    He inherited Pettis, Fuller(.831 composite), Baciella (.85) Chico (.875) Chin (.838) and Hamden’s talented but inexperienced incoming freshman Jones, Bynum, and Cook. Special thanks to Peterman for keeping Brent Pease too long!

    Lubick leveled WR recruiting way up, inking Spiker (.970), Osborne (.918), Lowe (.901) Culp (.881), and QB Yankoff (.956).

    On the field, Fuller (.831 composite) and Baciella (.85),while not flashy, have developed into productive pieces. YPC is way up. Ty Jones remains a work in progress who hopefully raises his game another level next year.

    Not counting the current recruiting cycle, I’d give Lubbick an A in both development and recruiting.

    It speaks volumes to Peterman’s offense that Spiker and Osborne haven’t played, considering the limited WR rotation.

    If Lubick whiffs on Ford—or a similar ceiling prospect this cycle— he drops down, but is a far cry from needing to GTFO (Hi Bob and PowPow!)
