More Dave Doeren on Wikipedia.He's a long ways from where he was two weeks ago - and he's getting better every day. He's really athletic, strong, big and he can close. He's got the tools. He just has to learn all the little details of the position. But he's getting there.
That (recruiting) has kind of been what I've made my mark at it. Until you are a coordinator full-time, that's one area where you can make an impact as an assistant, and that's something I've tried to do.
That's part of the excitement, too - it's fun to be around new people and learn. After awhile, being with the same guys, you have the same ideas and the same discussions year-in and year-out. So it's kind of nice being around fresh thoughts and ideas. It makes you think about some things that maybe in the past you didn't have to think about.
