and Mr. Dugans deserves honorable mention as well for our recruiting success.  There's Proof in the pudding.  

Some of you might have already seen this anyway, but I thought it warranted mentioning.  HCCS and his success with returning this program to national contention also obviously has a lot to do with this, but as the article points out, Mr. Hurt had just as much, if not more of his hand in this years successful recruiting class.  Maybe he was responsible for a lot of them being committed to the U and they just came because of their connections with him.  Lots of positive signs from this anyway IMO.  Nowhere to go but UP following HWSNBN, but the future is SOOOOO bright right about now.
