Plenty of examples throughout CFB. Expect a fair portion of those guys to either not pan out or find their way some where else one way or another. Just expect it so you won't be disappointed if it does happen because it usually does. Thats what happens when you recruit good talent, there are plenty of risks.

Why are you arguing the law of averages as a gambit to trivialize A&M's DL class?

Of course everything is speculative. Of course guys may not pan out.

So what?

As evinced by your examples--notwithstanding your cherry picking--that reality isn't exclusive to Texas A&M.

Recruiting isn't a science--you do the best you can with what you've got. We're all playing that game.

I just have no idea why you think this is relevant to whether A&M's DL class is the strength of the entire 2013 class. It's tough to project--we know. So you index your confidence to account for the risk. Either way, we're all dealing with the same issues.

Because it seems as though many A&M fans believe that just because they have a good recruiting class they are automatically going to get better next year or just replace the guys leaving as if every player is going to be every bit he's hyped up to be.

Seen many "2013 A&M roster breakdowns" note freshman as a reason they will be "better" on defense or just replace 2 WR's who probably produced more than any duo of WR's in the history of A&M over their careers. Along with like 1 of the best OT's A&M has had in decades.

I assume this is all predicated on the fact that every player in A&M's class is going to be good and exactly what they're projected to be.
