Allen Wallace Quotes
«[USC and Oklahoma] have become the two most dominant schools in the eyes of the kids they're recruiting. Just as Bobby Bowden demonstrated over a long period of time, I think as long as Bob Stoops and Pete Carroll are there they will always have exceptional teams. It's a more complicated game now than it's ever been, but those two guys are at the very pinnacle of grasping all the nuances.»
«It's like going to the courthouse and picking out 50 marriage certificates and spreading them out and saying who is going to be married 40 years from now. There are so many factors that come into play. How is a player going to mature? Is he going to have a drug problem in a couple of years? There are so many ways for a kid to go sideways, and sometimes it has nothing to do with anything negative.»
«You can have all the talent in the world and have a mediocre team. You see it all the time. The bottom line is it's all about coaching. The success of a football team has everything to do with leadership at the top.»
«I would be the first to tell you that if 50 percent of the guys I put on the Super Prep All-American team make it, I would be happy. About one out of every two guys is going to be a disappointment in some way. But what is success, a guy who starts two years, an all-conference player? He might even be a starter and still be a disappointment.»
«The great charm of recruiting as subject matter is that we don't know. We don't know what is going to happen.»
«Michigan's the kind of program that recruits well regardless of its record. Because of the tradition, the great rivalries and because of the helmet, Michigan is a big deal.»
«He was most definitely one of the guys who got the wheels going. The advantage he had was that no one else was doing it.»
«I think that's part of the charm of recruiting. You can never get enough great players. It's just another way to inflict injury on your rivals. That's why recruiting is so important to some people. You're winning two times. You're getting a player and you're taking him away from somebody else.»
«It doesn't even matter if a guy is highly ranked at the end. Even if a team gets a commitment from a two- or three-star guy, that's huge news (to fans).»
«It's all about coaching. The kids hear about a team's success, the parents hear about it. They start thinking this is where the leaders are and this is where the championship experiences are.»
