I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, we're getting a few guys with lots of other offers. On the other hand, we're also getting too many guys who have not so many offers. Our QB commit is one example of that, and he seems a stretch to me. His stats don't just jump off the page. Our most recent WR commit seems to be a better QB than our QB commit.
They seem to be emphasizing speed over height at the WR position, which is definitely different than the previous regime and maybe a good trend, but the previous regime also signed two guys that had both size and speed in Eskeldsen and Overby.
They seem to be good at finding and signing interior defensive line guys, which the previous staff also seemed to be able to do but not quite to the extent that this staff does. We've had trouble recruiting at that particular position in the past and some years we'd be lucky to have three DTs on the squad, two of whom started out as DEs and were grown into DTs. At least, that's the way it felt at times.
But overall, I'm a tad disappointed in recruiting. This class is ranked in the 50s nationally, which is not going to get us where we want to be. If we get some of the guys who are looking at us signed, that could change, but I'm a little luke warm on the class so far.
