While I certainly understand that guys Flood has recruited for the Class of '16 have a relationship with him and likely want him to stick around, I'd be curious to get your take on whether Flood is viewed as 'damaged goods' on the recruiting trail when it comes to kids in the Class of 2017+.
Presumably him staying would be helpful to holding this class together, but do you think that a new coach has a better chance, with future classes, than does Flood because recruits are still in their 'formative years' as far as being recruited and that the drama involved this season has permanently impaired his credibility?
