Success On The Field

Mike Norvell and staff can do everything right between now and when the season begins, but ultimately everything is riding on how well they perform on the field.

That’s why I’m not stressing their recruiting ranking right now. If they had a top 10 recruiting class and looked like crap on the field this fall?

The same thing that happened in 2018 would happen again. That’s one of the main reasons I feel it’s better to have that recruiting momentum closer to the season.

If the Noles show improvement on the field that will give them credibility and momentum on the recruiting trail.

The pitch is simple at that point. All they have to do is point to them delivering on what they have been pitching the entire time.

At that point, the proof is in the pudding and the recruit can see the value in going to a program on the rise.
