I guess this is pretty much what I am talking about. Just because it's the last element doesn't mean it's time to worry. There have only been so many recruiting classes, and it was a CHOICE to focus on defense first. You are definitely not incorrect that he hasn't yet done it with his own recruits, and therefor there is a measurement of doubt that can be drawn...  But sports analysis and prediction is about reading between the lines and making educated guesses, so you shouldn't HAVE to see it before you believe it all the time. There are enough facts for me to completely buy into the recruiting process.

-We have completely amped the athleticism on defense.
-We have completely amped the athleticism on the line.
-With the exception of Delone, almost all of the GRob players that Marrone has utilized on a regular basis over this year and last were not rated much higher than Marrone's guys. So if he can develop the low-level guys out of GRob's classes, why are people afraid he won't be able to develop his own? Given the fact he actually gets to recruit players to fit HIS system this time around, and I would venture is a better judge of talent, and a better coach.
