When did I act like the "purveyor of truth"? I simply stated there's a drop off in recruiting. Don't you think that's a bit hyperbolic? Give me a break. Do any of you really want to go down this road? Act like none of you have ever questioned any decision or action this university has made? LoL! Not sure if any of you are fans of Jung, but youre projecting. Pot, meet kettle.
It is Des' class, because every recruit still had to sign when he was the coach. Just like Napier's first class was 2018, with Manac, Smith, Moncrief, etc. Dubose and Edwards are still on team and, as of yet, not transferred out. I understand your position that it is Napier's class, but I disagree. Each of those recruits had an opportunity to re-open their recruiting or transfer out and so far have not done so.
Because I point out one positive fact in recruiting, you have labeled me a sunshine pumper.
No where did I say recruiting hasn't dropped off, what I said is that the four highest rated recruits were all signed or committed under Des. That number is now three with Horne decommitting. I agreed with you that quantity of quality depth of the classes has gone down.
Early signing day is December 21, 2022.
In two days, over 50% of the talent pool will be off the board after signing their national letter of intent (not to be confused with NIL).
It's naive to think we are going to make substantial strides between now and the close of the signing period in February.
We should have the hay in the barn by December 21st and possibly hold a few scholarships for late transfers.
Recruiting is never about pure reality, that's why so many 5-stars die on the bench.
Do you think a single P5 tells the highschooler the truth, that he may ride the bench for 3-years, and that when he finally gets his chance he won't be as good as he was coming out of highschool?
Putting your best foot forward has always been Job#1 when it comes to recruiting.
