The draft was great, and I'm very excited by the momentum it should provide on the recruiting trail, especially in-state. I'm just not sure how much progress our players made. Sure, Dobbs got better, but was that his personal work ethic or the program? Barnett put up around 10 sacks every season. No one took significant strides that struck me as serious development from coaches. Just my perspective. What will guys like Kongbo do? He has so much raw ability but needs to be developed. I hope that the coaching staff can do it, but I just don't have that confidence.

It's also hard to gauge the development of players regarding last season when just about every player that we had was injured at some point in time. I'm not disagreeing with you on some of the question marks you have, but last year was the biggest disaster from a personnel injury stand point over any season in my lifetime.

I have never seen anything like what happened to us last year. It was miserable.

Josh Malone absolutely got better and better every year. He's one of the few role players who remained healthy besides Dobbs and Barnett last year. All 3 had terrific seasons.
