Hill has to get top quality coaches to assist him too. Some that can recruit throughout the state and beyond in order to build a program such as Boise has done. <BR/>It will take time but can be done.<BR/>If Hill does'nt, his days are numbered at Fresno State.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16558511.post-1168662293835009402007-01-12T20:24:00.000-08:002007-01-12T20:24:00.000-08:00quit recruiting in the V and go after the guys in...quit recruiting in the V and go after the guys in orange co., san berdo co., riverside co., san diego co. and the dogs will do better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16558511.post-1168617352171901632007-01-12T07:55:00.000-08:002007-01-12T07:55:00.000-08:00If no one told you what the V on the back of the h...If no one told you what the V on the back of the helmet means it is a symbol of the valley that we live in.

Even young assistant coaches will someday become great head coaches and great OC's and DC's. There is not one person on the Bulldog staff that has the potential to be a great coach. The Bulldog defense was the most embarrassing defense in all of football and that includes the high school and pop warner teams. After watching all the bowl games this past year, wht would a top quality recruit pick Fresno over all the other well coached, well discplined teams? The Bulldog coaching staff is falling far behind ver quickly. There are zero quality assistant coaches on the entere staff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16558511.post-1168555684187737382007-01-11T14:48:00.000-08:002007-01-11T14:48:00.000-08:00Steve I can't say I disagree with you.

I mean if it matterd that much would they have finished in the top fifteen four times in the last five years? Fresno is now chasing Boise State and I have to say we kind of deserve the spot we are in. In the future I hope the Bulldogs can take a step back and realize they don't need to rush things. Improve yearly and eventually it will all come together.nschttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09195649645048645277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16558511.post-1168554817313823212007-01-11T14:33:00.000-08:002007-01-11T14:33:00.000-08:00Each season the 'Dogs have lost games they should ...Each season the 'Dogs have lost games they should have won; losses against "bigger" programs aren't held against them by most fans or recruits. However, a few wins or close losses against BCS teams won't make up for silly losses when those losses become habitual. Thus, we have lost our emminence as the football elite of the WAC, and with it our recruiting edge.<BR/><BR/>Boise St. however, continues to build its base, and move up step-by-step. Each step up makes it easier to recruit better players, making it easier to take the NEXT step up, creating an upward spiral. That upward momentum then creates a self-fulfilling phrophecy: "We are great, so join us!" Many players that would have selected Fresno State in the past now want Boise State.<BR/><BR/>One day there will probably be a book showcasing the "right" way to build a program to national prominence. That book will feature Boise State University.<BR/><BR/>Steve BurnesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16558511.post-1168553565823608882007-01-11T14:12:00.000-08:002007-01-11T14:12:00.000-08:00I will try and cover the recruiting in the WAC and...I will try and cover the recruiting in the WAC and why Boise has taken the lead tomorrow. I would venture to say because they have a steady program that is on the rise and has only experienced no more than three losses over the past four seasons. However, it may be something different as well, but I will check into it tonight.nschttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09195649645048645277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16558511.post-1168551214314033342007-01-11T13:33:00.000-08:002007-01-11T13:33:00.000-08:00Wonderful report on the steady rise by Boise.

I noticed on Rivals.com , that Boise has a huge lead over everyone in the WAC including the Dogs thus year.Is there a specific reason, other than the winning seasons enjoyed by the Broncos? Would apprecite your review on this..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
