But were we in the 40s because our recruits were better or because our results on the field were better? If they are struggling to rank an entire nation full of players then how was tom lemming covering the nation before the internet and all the available film?

There's just so much ambiguity. My guess is we continue to win a solid number of games this year -- not sure it's 10 but let's say 7-8 -- and be a solid program for as long as we can keep dino and crew together, but I'm not sure we'll ever climb above somewhere in the middle of the acc recruit ranking wise. We will never have the type of class on signing day that makes florida state or miami jealous.

But, to me, if this staff is seeing kids and getting early commits and then adding some solid 3-star type kids with solid offer sheets as we get into the later fall/winter months and then get most of those kids to sign in Feb. and show up in july or whenever, we are going to get back to being a very solid program. If we can sustain that for a bit maybe we can lure a few more difference-making type kids away from the factories, but that is never going to be where we live in recruiting.
