What puzzles me is, in all of College football is Sam Pittman the only guy who can recruit and coach 5 star guys? Seems like it.

What about Michigan's guy under Harbaugh.

I have to assume you are talking about offensive line.

Our OL was way better when Monken was here, but I also think Bobo likely had a lot to do with Searles getting hired, so I’m not sure he gets a pass there.

Searles was the O-line coach under Monken.

Yes, OL, and Luke was the OL coach after Sam.

Only in 2022, and they were all Luke & Pittman's players. Searles has brought in some massive dudes, but they just didn't gel this year and right now we need a lot of guys to step up for 2025

One underrated area where Monken excelled was evaluation of WRs. Hitting on McConkey and AD Mitchell as lower rated guys was huge.


Kirby was at Ladds high school basketball game to look at someone else when he saw Ladd and decided he would be a good addition to the football team. Ladd redshirted his freshman year because he was so raw. Monken may not have seen him until his sophomore spring game.
