You realize that the kind of kid that Carr would recruit for his offense aren't the same as RR is going to recruit for HIS offense. There are definitely skill set differences which are required. Matthias is definitely more of a Carr guy.

Yes, I acknowledge there will certainly be a difference but I think that difference is vastly overstated.

Hell, wasn't Davis-Bunnadaro or whoever the heck the fat kid's name a JLS recruit? Wasn't Dantonio the one who gave him the axe?

Didn't RR and Dantonio both pursue Omanah last year?

Sorry, but I think on the OL this "difference" isn't that substantial

Edit- I guess my main point is that the really good OL prospects usually have one thing in common now days- they have quick feet and are athletic. I don't see Dantonio or RR turning those guys down; ideally that's what everyone wants.
