They don't look all that dissimilar to our recent classes. And I don't think that the $EC would be lined up to take many of our recruits if we were the ones in the cross hairs. This is not meant as a diss to our commits, just stating what I see as the real talent level of State Pen's last two classes. Most of PSU's blue-chippers are from an excellent 2010 class. Don't get me wrong. Even the loss of so-called 'average' recruits hurts when your scholies are limited. Other than at most 10 blue-chip guys, though, the 'talent' won't suffer, but the numbers will be a problem. Especially since the 2013 cycle will not be particularly helpful once many of the verbals opt out. Three bad classes in a row. [/QUOTE]
