Current Rivals Team DL Rankings

[Orange to the Bay]

The fact that in both OL and DL ranking threads, TCU had no 4 or 5*'s and where therefore not in the top 25 speaks to talent eval, coaching and development, S&C, etc. All in all, very impressive what they've been able to do with that program (which has been in place for years, and that is also a credit to what you can do with culture and development when you're given time). They dominated on the line vs. Ole Miss.

Unlike some teams, I guarantee no freshman are likely playing on TCU, they're all experienced and developed upperclassmen if I guessed without looking.

Texas, auburn and florida not having a single 4* dlineman between them is shocking. Looks like we lucked out getting butch over strong if thats the best he can do in talent rich texas.

I've always felt we were better off with CBJ. Never been impressed with Strong. Good guy I guess, but I'm glad he turned TN down. Did not want him before Butch Jones was hired either.

Auburn may end up pulling Byron cowart, I believe he may be a 4* on some sites

Did you guys take into consideration losing Hendrix and Henderson etc...

No. But knew you would.

Combining 14/15 and re-ranking them, this is the 2 year top 5

1419 - Georgia
1266 - Tennessee
932 - red team
820 - South Car
800 - A&M

SEC dominating the DL recruiting as expected, this is where we need to be successful to compete in this conference imo. Great to see us stacking up with the competition again.
