It's a pretty lazy and lame article and extremely negative in it's tone. 
 
He says "The latter's success on the recruiting trail has not been quite as great. [B]Only eight players have pledged[/B] [B]their loyalty to Marrone and Syracuse[/B], and not one of them is expected to make a considerable splash."
 
He says the success on the recruiting trail has not been quite as great - yet every player (save Wilson) has major conference offers.
 
He says "only eight players" as being a negative.  Yet no mention that it's a highly selective class because of the low # of available offers.
 
He says not one is expected to make a considerable splash.  This I don't really get.  What recruits anywhere are expected to make a considerable splash?  Even if we got a kid like Ebenzer, I wouldn't expect him to make a considerable splash for a couple of years.  It's an absurd take on a recruiting class.  Yet even after saying it he comes back with "he may be able to be an impact player immediately" when talking about Edwards.  So which is it?  Is not one expected to make a considerable splash or is there maybe one?
 
I thinks it's lazy and piss poor that he doesn't mention Zach Allen being an Elite 11 camp QB.
