I have a different take on DT recruiting. No draft analysis I've been able to find rates Norton better than the 16th best draft eligible DT. He's projected to maybe go in rounds 3-5. RJ McIntosh isn't in anybody's top 25 that I have been able to find. UM has a problem of barely draft ready guys bolting early for the NFL. These guys, based on the information I've been able to find, would be gambling on a lot of DT's leaving the board and early.
This is a problem Richt needs to address. As bad as I hate even the slightest appearance of agreeing with broke, the numbers are what they are. We don't have real depth issues at DT unless BOTH Norton and RJ leave. Not many top rated DE's are going to give Kul the time of day knowing they may not play serious minutes for two or three years. If our guys leave, IMO they'll both be making a mistake, but it just might open up recruiting once playing time becomes something Kul can definitely pitch.
