You are right Tuubnderturd1100. The Hogs have zero chance against the Paper Tigers next year. I just wonder what you will think if the unthinkable happens? What if the Hogs take another game from the Tigers next year in LR to make it 3 out of the last 4? Impossible!
Sounds like more of a defense mechanism and not even defending the recruiting class this time. I don't know why some Ark fans just cant admit this class is well below SEC standards.

I don't like the lack of high-end talent, but this class provides more quality depth than we have ever signed before. That isn't an opinion. It's simple fact.
No more Darren McFadden/Felix Jones and 18 Scruffy McGee's. This was a class about providing depth, not instant playing time, and the quality is higher than ever before.

How can you evaluate players and a class before a year or two on the field? I don't get too excited one way or the other but those who think they can gauge a class before they actually show up on campus and have a chance to develop are just ignorant. I’ll wait for a couple of years to evaluate this class and you would be wise to do the same. Otherwise, some posters might get the wrong impression that you have no idea what you’re talking about.

I agree woopig.
The difference I see with Petrino's classes is that he goes out and makes the offers to the guys he needs, and every player seems to have been evaluated as an asset.
Not a Nutt flame (so don't take it as one) but the previous years it seemed like we'd throw out scholarships to random people as favors, and in-state kids who may not have been D-1 material who had no other D-1 offers. The classes we got a few big players were always very top-heavy.
There's always a method to what Petrino does.
I'm satisfied with our recruiting this year.
