Anyone paying attention knows that Allen was more highly regarded than his 3 star meaningless scout rating indicated. Does that mean he was underhyped? Perhaps. Is it a guarantee he's a can't miss prospect? Certainly not. Fact is we need a decent QB recruit and some RB's in this class. Plain and simple.
 
I don't think Shafer is a bad hire and do think he earned it.
 
My gripe is more that Shafer was presented as the 'continuity' guy... and it looks like the staff is being blown-up, starting fresh and that we'll be lucky to retain any of the key recruits from this class. Not all that unexpected really. 
 
In other words,the continuity presentation is a ruse... and our needs for a QB and decent RB prospects may go unfulfilled this year.
 
I am not all that surprised. It's what happens when coaches leave... they take key guys with them. It almost seemed to good to be true that this was not going to happen and we'd keep Allen and other recruits.
 
I bought the bait and am disappointed... such is life...
