First RU new staff photo Released

I really love Coach Ash, but this picture is beyond corny. High school kids will laugh at this, like I did. I t would have been fine without the squatting center in the picture. A bit much...

Makes sense. Aren't most of these guys from Iowa
 
All I'm saying is Coach Blazek looks like an accountant lining up for the first snap of a flag football game. One can have a different opinion.
Except Blazek was an All B1G Ten center for Iowa and every recruit knows this. Guy is legit.
 
You're a moron - that post was strictly part of the back and forth between mildone and I. Get a friggin' life!
Spank..you need to calm down. You shouldn't be a mod and your post has proven this.

Such a strong over-reaction on a comment over the picture? .

maybe for us old farts...kids love that stuff...and so do I.
 
I think it was a funny pic and there's nothing wrong with that. I've said I think this will be one of the most knowledgeable and competent staffs with regards to social media and recruiting that we've ever had here. To me this is just another example of that. A little fun with the guy hiking the ball, the forming of the "fence" by the coaches..all seems fine to me.

The pic is corny as hell.... theres really is no other way around it lol. But hey maybe they're onto something who knows. I mean how many times do you see an ad and think "wow thats corny".. When in reality theres some marketing/advertising pro behind it who's using a subliminal technique that'll get the product to stick in your head. I'm sure aspects of E-recruiting work the same way sometimes. They are the experts after all.

I think there is some "corniness" to it but I think you could say that about a lot of things as it relates to social media in college and recruiting. You see coaches coaches dancing in the lockerroom constantly and releasing the vids. Those things are corny and funny too and it's definitely for recruiting. Herman has his slogan H-Town Takeover IIRC, is there not a degree of corniness to that too? Ash and company seem to have come up with Fence the Garden. Not particularly a favorite for me but whatever, it's all the same IMO.

This kind of stuff is all "normal" now when it comes to college recruiting and connecting with kids in today's world through social media and the like. I've said I think this staff is probably the most social media savvy as we've ever had but that doesn't mean we're ahead of the curve now in that respect, but just that now we've come more into line with what many schools/coaches are already doing.
 
Love how small time some of our fanbase is. Hey these guys on staff have been winners wherever they have been. Ash coached for a national championship team. A few sorry people in fanbase wouldn't know if success hit them in their ballsack
