I am very afraid to see our team paying for 2005 and 2007's bad recruiting years. Considering the level of raw talent (not even bringing up a coaching thread) we are far outclassed.
We did have a very good class last year. A lot of good talent for the secondary and skill players on the O. Hopefully we can tie-in a good o and d line, and we'll be fine. Maybe we'll land some big Freshmen next year, and they'll substitute for bad recruiting years. If we take the SEC this year, we'll affirm that we are back on the map, and the convincing will not need to be done... as much.
