On the other hand, coach Pry has been a coordinator for a big time program

and been in this business a long time, so need for learning curve should be at a minimum. Plus Whit has given him more $ for assistants and a whole lot more non-coaching staff members for analytics and recruiting. Just wanna see some progress, not a step back. Ahem....Kansas anyone?

A good leader hires a staff to supplement his weak points.
Gobbler Guru • 10/02/22 06:26 PM ET
Dude...Pry's first class with be 2023. I am concerned he did not recruit
