at keeping our early commits over the last couple of years.
I know it doesn't mean much now, but going on our recent history it will be just fine.
Dabo gets them and then keeps them.

... there are barely any 5 star OL
Jul 9, 2012, 1:26 PM

Like barely ANY. ESPN has ONE five star OL.
There are 20 OL in the top 300.
We have had very good OL recruiting classes in the past two years whether you want to believe it or not. Everyone that looks at all this star #### is being ridiculous.
The single WORST position to judge based on Stars is OL. Takes 2 to 3 years to develop an OL. Will start to see the young guys grow before your eyes this season.

^^^^I agree with this guy^^^^

we have recruited well on the OL the last couple of seasons. It is the hardest position to rank as far as star ratings go.
We have a good young group 8 to 10 deep I believe. If we don't get several OL this year we will be ok.

what U say is partly right.. hard to judge O/L... but with our LACK OF A S & C program to develope these guys we will continue to get poor production from out O/L

True. You can't judge OL by the star ratings a lot of the time. They also have to have a level of nastiness about them. It is a position that takes experience and training. I think we will do just fine.

How has our Receiver recruiting gone the past 2 years?
Because that is all some people want to recruit.
We lost 0 Receivers from last year & added 2 for this year.
Losing 1 this year & already have commits from 2 with people screaming for 2 more.
2-3 years to develop OL means you have to recruit them EVERY year!

So far it's a fantastic DE class, but otherwise below avg.
Jul 9, 2012, 1:35 PM

BUT, if we pick up 6 or 7 of our top 15 targets remaining it will be a GREAT class. I am one of the worst offenders on the board for counting some kids in who are still coin flips. (like Fuller and Adams)
I'm not a naysayer, we are in a very good position. But there's lot's of work to be done.

True once again. We have a lot of potential to make this a great class. We just need to close the deal with the rest of our top targets.

What would it look like if the OB had been a win, since so many said the L would hurt recruiting

but you have to admit things could be really special if we had not been embarrassed in that BCS bowl.
