Funny, last year all I read was people crying how we missed 2 of 3 stud RBs and a DT. This year we have, at moment, 4 count them four, top frigging RBs and again it is all about who we DON'T have. 2016 is unbelievable at the moment and 2015 is getting better and better. Every one blamed staff for the university school crap but wonder of wonder, two studs leave there and go to STA and bang now they are Canes. There is a lot going on down here that is not the staff's fault. Everything considered, recruiting has been strong. On the field results are a different matter. That is their blame to take.
Last year there was
WR: Lane, Dixon and Rudolph
ATH: T. Harris
RB: Cook, Powell and Michel
DT: Valentine and Clark
DB: JC Jackson
None of them went to University School. Some of these kids were kids that we missed on, for whatever reason...it doesn't matter (what reason) because those reasons will ALWAYS be a factor in recruiting. No one is saying bring in ALL of those kids, we're just saying we want MORE of those kids. The 2014 class left something to be desired. It had some great players but we needed more.
We're in 2015. We need the following: 3 LB, 2 DT and 4 DBs. No one is denying the 2016 class but that is what it should ALWAYS be. That is what we expect and that is what we need.
As for 2015, that is excellent that we have 4 elite RBs but none of them can play on the 2014 team. In addition (and more important), there are other positions besides RB. So we need studs at EVERY position and not just RB.
Do you get it?
