I have heard that Carlson essentially just stockpiles talent via recruiting and small scholarships/walk-on spots. With a big team of talent and egos, he then creates a cutthroat boiler room environment where athletes are forced to sink or swim. A few succeed, a few become permanently broken, some transfer out. He doesn't have development in mind. Just get results and always desperately work to keep your spot because he's got a dozen other athletes ready to take it.
