Yup compared to players like Boum going to Xavier. It’s been pretty obvious Golding can’t recruit the level of talent that Uteps been accustomed to. I actually think he’s a decent X’s and O’s guy, but he just doesn’t get good enough talent to El Paso.

I'm not convinced on the Xs and Os. To convince me, you would have to make the case that the team wins more games than the talent level would win with another random CUSA coach. Wins Above Replacement if you will.
Agree. Seems to me CJG is using the recruiting blueprint at UTEP that made him successful at ACU. It’s apples to oranges though.
He’s definitely a better Xs and Os coach than he is recruiter. The major knock on his actual coaching, imo, is his inability to adapt, to make necessary adjustments during game time. He’s a one trick pony and once figured out, once teams adjust, the show is about over.
I agree that’s why I said decent, not a good coach. My ex was Decent, but she wasn’t worth putting up with and neither is Golding! lol 😆
