Recruiting: Robichaux's Press Conference & Radio Show

[barisaxman]

Don’t know if anyone was listening to the coach’s show at Pete’s, but I thought I’d share part of the conversation. On BEV, Jay teased that he’d be asking Robe to elaborate on a statement he made yesterday(hinting that it dealt with RP comments). What was said was that this is the FIRST recruiting class based on using a completed Russo Park as part of the lure....He went on to talk about how much talent is being added in the fall, and that we’re seeing a difference with three fulltime recruiters on the road, and that he expects things to turn around to what we’re used to...
I’m not taking a position on what was said, except to hope that he’s right about things getting turned around. Just thought you’d want to know what was said...

It doesn't matter where you play if you cannot identify talent.

I guess Robe is on the road, which is a first. He has not traveled recruiting since b4 my son played here. That is news.

Everybody will take the "talent is on the way" spin for what it is. Been there. Done that.

Is Robe out recruiting or was that your inference of what was said?

Only coaches allowed on the road are paid assistants and head coach. Wells and Talbot are the paid coaches. The statement 3 coaches on the road infers Robe is one.

However, that contradicts what he said Saturday on O-Zone. Robe said there he does not travel for recruiting, which has been my understanding for a long time.

Which is why I asked. I can't remember the last time he went out and actively recruited.

He supposedly found Hunter Moody at a high school game Justin played in 2003.

That's all I know

So one would think our local media would ask the question straight up. But they won’t and all we can do is speculate.

School-owned media. Who cares about recruiting jibber jabber. Same bs. Different year. It's just conversation.

The ballpark is nearly empty. They are in the put up, or shut up stage now. They need a good season next year, or the school will likely look elsewhere.

Next season will be interesting. Coaches likely coaching for their jobs.

Or we could just call in the Bobs to find out what exactly some people do around the program?

LOL. I'm getting softball seats next year.

He mentioned how fans would always complain that all we did was pitch but we needed to recruit hitters. He said:

"I don't recruit, my recruiting coordinators recruit" and then finished it up with maybe now fans will see how important pitching is.

So basically we allowed this program's worst hitting coach of my lifetime find and recruit all of the players on this team? And we're still confused about why we suck?

Well if he’s not doing so now, then he needs to re-evaluate his choice of profession.
