I think Babers, the strength staff, etc., have done a great job coaching up what they have.  They also picked up a few nice transfers to bolster the ranks in Robinson, Martin, and hopefully Adams, Alexander and Jackson.  We had some great luck with injuries, and some of our opponents were in a tailspin last year.

You operate under this perpetual false equivalency that just because we are ranked, we are talented enough.  I guarantee you that there isnt a coach on our staff that doesnt wish we could bring in more talent.  They are offering highly thought of recruits for a reason.  Berger is still a take, despite having two running backs verballed already, for a reason.  There's no such thing in football as having a team that is too fast, too explosive, too strong, too fluid, etc.

Again, we do not operate in a vacuum.  Just because we improved, doesnt mean FSU wont jump forward.  Or Louisville.  Clawson can coach.  Doerean can coach.  Miami and North Carolina are recruiting studs.  Notre Dame and Clemson are pulling top 10 type classes.  The improvement is obvious.  I think Babers will have a winning program in perpetuity here now.  But i think we need better players to become an annual top 25 team.

I love Taj Harris.  I've been on record since I saw his HS film as saying he was the most athletic and talented receive we've had since Mike Williams (which pretty much puts him on par with any receive in my lifetime not named Marvin Harrison).  It would be awesome to pair him with someone like Gowdy.  Not to mention, the top kids want to play with other top kids.  The gap between Gowdy and our other wide receiver recruits is immense.

I'm rambling ... here.
