Recruiting...

[stu4don]

Was just thinking... Injuries to our best player (Morrison), our best two rushers, and our best two OLineman, yet here we are at #6.

So I was looking at the fact that we only have one top 100 recruit this year. Last year we had five.

Yet, in terms of impact I'd have to rank them this way (247 Player Rankings):

1. Moore (NA)
2. Knapp (NA)
3. KVA (42)
4. Williams (NA)
5. Young (24)

Now -- it is unusual for QBs to start, so CJ is understandable, same with OT Lambert (Knapp is an outlier), most surprising is Cam Williams. If we flip Meadows and get Faraimo we'll end up with three which ain't bad (Chase won't be happy but he never is).

Just found this year's Freshman Class interesting and wonder if it is typical.

This freshman class of ours is outstanding

Young is higher than 5 this year. He's basically starting at DE
