Hard to blame Kelly for Crist. Or vice versa.

Crist was a square peg trying to fit into a round hole. It was like Powlus running the option. Unlike Holtz, Kelly didn’t recruit this one.

Gunner was certainly an elite ranked recruit. I suppose one could argue that his year on the scout team broke him, but ending up as a backup at Cincy probably confirms that he was not the elite talent the services thought he was.

I think the strongest case can be made for Jurkovec. He’s certainly highly rated and fits Kelly’s system.
