2020 football recruiting

[GoRMU]

It seems the RMU football staff is quite busy working on 2020 recruiting and making a lot of offers.
Hopefully, these offers will pay off with a strong class next year. I suspect that it will be much easier to close the deal with many of these potential recruits if the team makes solid progress on the field next fall, that is, winning more games than in the past few years. I am optimistic about the program and the coaching staff, but I think this coming season will be crucial. They do not need to win 8, 9 or 10 games, but they need to win enough games to show that the program is moving in the right direction.

My son Bryce Bevins is a 2019 Slot receiver and new recruit at RMU. He will be there this fall. He picked RMU over many other offers he received because of how this coaching staff treated him. They were very diligent on there recruitment of him.Bryce wants to be a part of bringing a winning tradition to RMU. Go Colonials.

I really liked some of the old staff. They were mostly good coaches and good people who got stuck in a rut and couldn't get out.

But this staff seems to be far more aggressive in recruiting. They're going out and getting guys on campus early and often instead of waiting to be someone's second or third choice. And they're a lot more active on social media, which as silly it sounds, is huge in the current era of recruiting.

Seems to go across the board for the guys who are getting substantial scholarship money and guys who are preferred walk-ons, too.

I think we'll see that start to pay off on the field this season. Maybe not an NEC title, but a climb back to .500 and a winning record.
