One Last Parting Shot at TOB

Whomever is the new BC HC, I'm looking forward to a guy who makes the right personnel decisions. It seems like TOB always chose the wrong player when a key position was up for grabs. I remember he initially chose some forgettable back over Derrick Knight to succeed Mike Cloud. DKnight only went on to become BC's all-time leading rusher, and 2nd in the nation his senior year. I think he made the wrong call with LV Whitworth over Andre Callender. Whitworth is certainly serviceable, but Callender stikes me as more of a feature back, one who needs a lot of carries to get going. And TOB initially chose Quinton Porter over Paul Peterson (big mistake), and stuck with Quinton Porter over Matt Ryan (bigger mistake). In my opinion, those baaaad decisions undoubtedly cost BC some games over the years.
