Had Sny_er as DC which has been corrected.

Had to run off best LB and DT from 2013 class.

Have had a tremendous number of injuries at LB position.

To be very, very honest, I am a bit disappointed in the NATURE of our recruiting (esp. 2013). Coaches should recruit for both talent and character. It is well-documented that we seem to have recruited a larger-than-average number of individuals with severe character flaws.

It is not clear whether our coaching staff was unaware of the character issues for these individuals, or not. Perhaps Sumlin simply does not care about the latter element, but I suspect the problem is somewhat different.

When Sumlin arrived, we had such a problem with the "talent" end that he (I think) was forced to slacken on the "character" end of things.

It is my hope that some small measure of success and greater national exposure will allow the Aggies to be somewhat more selective on the "character" front.
