The one thing I hope Coach Smith brings to this staff is recruit and player evaluation. I think it was a major failure of of out previous coaching staff.
Coach Riley had a reputation for finding hidden gems. We became Linebacker U. Nick Barnett and James Allen were 190lbs safeties. Richard Siegler was a wide receiver. All, became outstanding LBS because of good evaluation and development. Chris Petersen has always said we recruit OKG's. Our Kind of Guys. It has worked at both
BSU and Washington.
I'm hoping Coach Smith learned this while working for Peterson and that Riley and the staff that Coach Smith hires can again bring this to the front while on the recruiting trail.
