Irrationally? We have one decent DL commit and the only other guy we would have a good shot at signing right now is Swain who 1. may very well sign with MSU and 2. doesn't even really look that good.

It's gonna take a shite load of money to sign a good DL class at this point. It's been a swing-and-a-miss cycle for Garner so far
As Rocky has said a million times, the best approach is to wait til the faxes come in February before reacting. Any negative reaction before that is irrational. Let the faxes come in then make your assessments. As for the DTs for this class I'm personally not worried even if we sign three 3*s because I think the DTs already on roster will play much better under a more aggressive scheme we will have under Boom than most anticipate. Plus I would not be surprised at all if Boom pulls a 4* DT rabbit out of his hat. Even if he doesn't we lead for 3 or 4 very good 2016 DTs so OI'm still not worried. But as I said before some have been melting for months so go ahead and keep melting. It's actually entertaining.

I too think some of the guys we have will play better. But signing three average guys is not the best way to compete in the trenches against the guys our rivals are getting.

Good thing Boom came to save Garner's arse.

And what about in 2016, when Lambert, Lawson, and Monty leave? We're gonna rely on freshmen to play significant minutes?

I would be fine with 3 3*s. But right now all we have is 1 3*. And I don't see where the other two would come from right now. I can only think of 3 targets (Payne, Beckner, and Swain) and none of them are likely ending up here.

2016 Dline recruiting looks promising but 2015 did at one point too. And fact is we need some quality guys before 2016.
