If they could do that, without it becoming frustrating and annoying, I'd be all for it. But in the meantime I'm okay with new offseason recruits.
In-season recruiting shouldn't be as big of a deal as it is. That's how they fix the recruiting. MOST of the truly big recruiting is done toward the end of the year (October and November). Recruiting should be very minimal at the beginning of the year (this is where scouting of the players comes into play instead of immediately giving them the schpeel and the scholarship offer). Recruiting really just needs to stop being so damn cookiecutter.
