Yes, defensive side of the ball recruiting has been fantastic.  To say people are dismissing that is inaccurate.  This board loves what the defense has done for awhile now especially given how far into the D depth we’ve had to go.  I don’t recall a single post complaining about our recruiting for the D in general except the need for DL size. Which is more than fair.

However since DB has been here the offensive side of the ball has been largely terrible.  Yes we have what I think are two very good backup QB’s.  That’s the first time in 7 years we’ve had depth there.  We have zero depth anywhere else on the offense except RB except does the coaching staff even like them, they can’t even find the field.

Not only do we not have 2-3 solid WR’s we have no depth on the OL or TE position and apparently only depth on the RB position from this boards perspective but not the coaches perspective.  After 7 years I don’t think it’s unfair to complain a little about recruiting.  Many weeks every year we play teams with some of their best offensive players out.  Then they roll out the backup and there’s very little drop off.  Pitt was running their 3rd string RB for more yards than Tucker.  I get that we’re banged up, have players out and guys are fatigued - that’s why their 3rd stringer can run all over us.  But that’s also my point.
