Sure, that part is just his opinion - that in these circumstances, coming off two crap seasons, it's maybe unfortunate that we haven't gone back to guys who were available that we already had a relationship with.
Now, yes, maybe the staff rates other guys higher - but these were guys we missed, and wanted.  And unless this has all been a very bad dream, we have just given up 88 sacks these past 2 seasons after winning 10 games the year before.

And we have no meat in the middle of our defense to stop people from pushing us around with a solid run game.  We have a spunky G5 level defense, and a Patriot League offensive line. 
We used to have some ACC talent at the offensive skill positions, but they have left too soon, and now we (again) have a bunch of unproven guys.  The RBs look promising, but the WRs are a bit disappointing compared to our initial targets.  There are 2 or 3 guys whose final fours we made who could have REALLY improved this offense next year.

I'm very excited about the new QB from Miss State.  That kid could really push Tommy and compete for the job.  Tommy will have to be much better to keep the job, if he comes back. It's looking more likely since his name is still not in the portal and the semester is done.  But I'm not convinced 100% yet.  There are still about six weeks left until the window shuts.
