Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 265048, member: 485"] We have had a handful of those stand-out players -- Mike Williams, Arthur Jones, Deleone Carter, Doug Hogue, maybe Chandler Jones (but limited by injuries in 2011), maybe Pugh. Marrone hasn't recruited any gems of that quality -- the guys who draw extra attention, who make plays, or who get a couple of sacks or tackles for losses in each game. Maybe Broyld or Thompson or the juco DE from the West coast will be his impact recruits. That is part of the malaise around the program. Spring practice -- no excitement about Marrone's recruits. Some solid players like Smith, Gulley, Foy, the young LBs who are growing up, but no young WR who is making plays or a promising young DE who creates problems. Big story of the Spring -- Nassib looking good passing to Sales. [/QUOTE]
