Re: What does Vinny Cerrato do?

But they supposedly give Riddick/Campbell pretty much carte blanche, not sure I'm using the term right actually but Snyder and Cerrato usually go off their recommendations without much pushback.

And the other key player is Eric Schaeffer, who handles the money.
I wonder if Riddick recommended both Archuleta and B. Lloyd. If so, I would think that we could do better with our head of pro scouting.
