I figured I would take a little time and look at the recruiting rankings of some of the coaches who have been mentioned here. I tried to limit the list to coaches who have been at the same place for more than 4 years because you can't really judge guys like Mingione and Thompson quite yet.

All of these guys have been successful on the field, so that goes without saying.

What does this tell us? I'm not sure. If you just look at the rankings, Schlossnagle is the only that I would consider a consistent, elite recruiter. The rest are a bit up and down. I'm sure the daft has something to do with it.

How does this compare to 2016-2019 MSU recruiting rankings? I know it would be 2 different staffs, but still would be relevant to see what the numbers say in comparison.

Some MSU baseball fans probably feel the same as Florida football fans...

The Florida fans assume that Mullen will be able to recruit better at Florida than he did at MSU because Florida football is a 'bigger program' than MSU.

Similarly, those baseball coaches on that list (and others) should be able to recruit better at MSU than their current schools.

Of course, baseball does have the 11.7 scholarship thing with some schools able to overcome it, and the state of Mississippi doesn't have as many quality HS baseball players as the state of Florida has quality HS football players.

My vote is Jimmy Dugan. He hates women.
