I never said I was a  victim.  Never will be either.  I agree it's been civil the entire time.  I do realize the college recruiting landscape has changed.  I think the staff tries.  But stating that SU standards should be a top 20 class is not a crime nor should it be unrealistic.  And it's funny because "insiders" have said we will come away with a top 20 class too.  It's only an issue if I expect it, and the staff can't (for whatever reason) deliver.  Then the rationalizing starts.  I won't be pigeonholed into being a negative fan for having expectations of a recruiting class that's in the upper echelon of the ACC, and above the likes of a Providence and UConn.  I also expect that we should usually beat out the likes of Alabama, Missouri, Florida St, Xavier, Western Kentucky, Stanford, Va Tech, Texas A&M, Creighton, Illinois, Iowa St, Auburn, Colorado, Arkansas, Arizona St, Ole Miss, LSU, Butler, TCU, Georgia, and Wake Forest most of the time.  Yet ALL had a higher rated recruiting class than we did in the link I provided for 2017.  AND yes, I know that rankings don't mean everything... but they do mean something.

Thank you for your insights.  I hope you have a nice Friday too.  I think 2018 should be a lot of fun.  I too expect a nice ride.
