Are this much in denial about your defensive recruiting? The same guys you're beating your chest over are the same guys the Alabamas, LSUs, UFs, etc...would be going "WTF why did we offer him"
Star ratings, per se, are not that important to us. Why does this concern you?

So yall losing those three, along with possibly Knile Davis and you think Arky's offense will be better?
Our offense will be good but it remains to be seen whether it will be better or worse. If I remember correctly many on here was predicting Arkansas' offense would drop off dramatically this year with the departure of Mallett.
That isn’t going to be the case this year and it won’t be the case next year. Arkansas had a stable full of very, very good receivers just waiting for their turn.

Where in that quote did I say anything about star ratings? I'm saying the players that are committing to you don't have much else to choose from. They're not getting big time offers.

Because other coaches know its impossible to flip an Arkansas commit, so they just don't bother after that.

Offense will always be good. Remember, none of our guys are really that good. It's our system so we will just keep plugging them in. .

But you have to replace all those bad arse receivers after this year, right?
Well according to a large portion of the SECr they are just system receivers anyways so we should be fine just plugging in a couple more 4*'s.
ETA: frick I'm slow. Marty beat me by an hour.

Arkansas doesn't have a single defensive commit right now that's even a 5.7 3* on rivals or higher out of the 15 commits. You can't possibly sit here and say that doesn't concern you. On top of that, just look at these defensive players you're landing, ignore their rank, they arent getting offers from big-time schools.
Petrino's recruiting method appears to be working quite well, considering the lack of offers from "big-time" schools, as you stated.
Our defense has improved every year, so yes, I can sit here and say it doesn't concern me. I can only speak for myself.
If/when our defense or offense has a major setback, I might show some concern, but for now, the future doesn't look too bad as long as we continue winning.

We will lose a lot of experience on D after this year, but we've been upgrading our size and speed the last few years, so I don't think I'd go so far as to say the D will struggle in 2012.
You sound like a fricking aubie. That makes NO sense. GTFO with that logic.

The new crop of defenders just brought in are overall bigger and better than what we are used to getting.

No, nothing at all. Check out the SECsy thread if you want to know the truth about Memphis, you know, drama and stuff.

Is LSU's defense going to be able to stop the :mercyknee: this year?
Really, this is all I would be concerned with if I were you...

Is Jeremiah expected to contribute this year? I met him a couple times in high school.

You're not alone. His emotional motives are leaking from his twisted logic.
