Exactly. Selling Drexel to recruits is an extremely difficult task. Bruiser always excelled and I think a main reason for that was his connections in the industry as well as his connections in Philly, despite not always getting Philly kids. He may not have been the best coach but he was a hell of a recruiter. Anyone stepping into this gig was always going to be fighting an uphill battle on the recruiting front.

To have success as Drexel you either need to be one hell of a recruiter or you better be one hell of a coach who can get the most out of their players who fit their scheme.
