That's a good piece. Bell's strategy of recruiting high schoolers and playing the long game seems smart. There are a lot of really good high school players on our roster.

Tre lamb gets on my nerves He is full of himself. Seems like a snake oil salesman to me. The 2 people in the SoCon coaching that really irritate in my opinion are Lamb at ETSU and Ritchie the Basketball coach at Furman.

Coach Bell said something very similar to what he said here on the Tracking the Cats podcast this week. We asked him about the portal, and he said he likes to recruit and train the kids out of high school (knowing they will lose one or two), but to have a good stable and to supplement with the portal where needed for depth and leadership.

The other part of focusing on high schoolers is sure - you will probably lose some. But because so many kids are moving around in FBS football that means those schools are taking fewer high schoolers. So lots of the 3* type of high school kids are going to be available and give FCS schools more (but young) talent than ever before.
I think it is a good move - better to have a bunch of really talented kids even if for only a couple of seasons than it is to not have those kids at all.
