They did a great job finding the kids up and down the pacific coast that didn't get taken by the big name schools like Oregon / USC / UCLA and making good teams out of them. I don't think those kids are looking at Utah anymore... they are looking at Minnesota and Wisconsin and Indiana, where they can still play a game or two on the pacific coast, and they get to stick it to the teams that passed them over.

YES, yewtah probably eventually might be able to do that with Texas kids... but Texas kids have LOTS of other options in Texas.

I think yewtah will need an all new recruiting strategy that is looking daunting to build right now.
