2010 Recruiting Class - Where are they now?

[JimmyJohnsonsHair]

This class was an abomination, especially on defense.

14 guys were recruited to play defense, and NINE aren't even on the roster.

Hold up...so we now have only 5 (that's FIVE) defensive players total from an entire recruiting class?!?

GTFOOH. That **** ain't real life.

Some shameful ****.


1. Latwan Anderson - DB
2. Jeffrey Brown - DT
3. Delmar Taylor - DT
4. Jimmy Gaines - LB
5. Kelvin Cain - LB (moved to DE)
6. Devont'a Davis - CB
7. Jeremy Davis - CB
8. Kevin Nelson - LB
9. Tavadis Glenn - DT
10. Kacy Rodgers - DB
11. Keion Payne - CB
12. David Perry - DE (moved to TE; so not even playing defense)
13. Travis Williams - LB
14. Tyrone Cornelius - LB (bounced between LB and S)

And we still have fans, many on this board, who can't understand why we aren't a top level team.

That's why I disagree when people say we aren't THAT bad.

Uh, yes, we ARE that bad.

Last year we were a middle-of-the-road defense, but when we lost all of the productive upperclassmen, the defense fell off a cliff. Shocker.

Exactly.

Reads like an indictment against Shannon. I'm speechless.

Randy's major problem was that he put in way too much time and resources into recruiting areas he didn't need to recruit...you're in South Florida for Christ's sake...

Why are you going to Jacksonville? Why are you putting in so much time and effort in Georgia? Recruiting Kansas? Recruiting the Ohio/Michigan area?

There was a lot of time, effort, and resources put into recruiting those areas and the net yield was minimal.

Serious question. Was randy trying to shun everything about the program? My guess as to his decision making was that he hated what Miami legacy, the high schools that the players came from (maybe hated their coaches) hated the south Florida football culture maybe? It can't just be poor decisions. He say some great recruiting and coaching at Miami. He literally had the best example of how to run a program. He must have really grown to hate Miami's history and maybe sought to change it by recruiting elsewhere and doing things completely different than any coach before him?

Can't imagine it was some emotional crap like you're suggesting. Just straight incompetence.

His philosophy was to recruit safeties and make them LB's. But then he also had a philosophy of recruiting safeties and converting them to CB's. Real talk and even a dummy sees a problem with this ideology.
