The ykey is building quality depth. The best teams play freshman, but the best teams also have freak 5 star athletes coming in every year. These are rare kids who have size speed and strength in high school. It usually ends up being WRs, and rarely is it RBs, DBs, QBs and even rarer linemen or LBs.

For us, it would be nice to build depth and stack the competition every year for starting position by red shirting players. It would be nice to be red shirt some kids to let them develop (preferably lineman, LBs and QBs).  I'm not real sure that any of the incoming freshman are absolutely vital right now to the team (if howard or williams can play great to provide depth at DB. If Slayton's in great shape maybe he can give us some depth at DE). Otherwise, as excited as we've been about this class, i think it would be advantageous to have everyone else learn the play book, get up to college speed and work on size speed and strength. But i guess well see what the kids look like when they show up in August.
