Obviously, there are plenty of the consensus "can't miss" type players that every school would love to sign, but once you get past them it's a crap shoot. IMO, the staff's ability to evaluate talent is far more important. Do I get excited when we sign a 4 star guy? Sure I do, but I also get excited when we sign players like Chan Jones, George Morris and Zach Allen. Any person who has a rudimentary understanding of FB should be able to see the potential in players like these.
 
Case in point: Perennially, Pitt signs a top 30 recruiting class, yet we just beat them at their own game. According to star gazers, this couldn't/shouldn't happen. Can we blame this on "Ole 30 second Bob" and his Pitt bias?? Maybe. Additionally, I learned on this very board that Marrone and staff suck so we know we didn't out coach the Pitt staff. Hey...even a broken clock it right twice a day, right? So...how on earth did SU, a team with a piss poor coaching staff and a roster full of 2 and 3 star players beat Pitt? Maybe we shouldn't even show-up next week.
 
In the meantime, I'll keep reading the board searching for answers from all the gurus (not directed at you Bees) chiming in with their expert analysis. I might even be persuaded that the glass is actually half empty after all.
