I feel A Little Better

UT’s former coaches had mixed results on signing day. Oklahoma State, with former UT receivers coach Trooper Taylor on staff, finished 27th nationally according to Rivals and 40th by Scout. Duke, with Cutcliffe, Luke and Kurt Roper, finished 65th and 70th, respectively.

Rex, Jeff Stewart has a decent article up on the scout board. While he admits his glass of Kool-aid is half full, he describes how the recruiting boards measure classes in quantity, ie two three star players=1 five star.

If you average UT's stars this year they are at 2.94. That ranks them fourth in the SEC ahead of Auburn.

Remember, don't shoot the messenger. I am not doing back flips over this class right now, but signing 18 definitely put UT at a ranking disadvantage.

Good points Lex. For once.

This class can only be measured with time. Give two or three years and our class could very well pan out as one of the top in the sec.

Considering that might be me in your avatar, I would say that I do my best!

Might be alot of us. Agree with your assessment of not being happy at all regarding position of class but will have to wait on how it plays out.

After reading the CURIOSITY LEAD ME thread this morning I must admit that I feel a little better. A top 10 class would have been better. We wouldn't have to listen to all the Bammer fans rib us!

misery loves company. the guys we signed dont bother me so much as the fact that almost every other SEC school is far ahead of us. Bama as #1 makes me sick.
