Yea, it really is hard to get too excited or down about recruiting knowing if we don't win this season it's all gonna be totally up in the air anyway.



I would be shocked if we don't get turned on the up slope this year and finish strong with this class. I think the quarterback will be the biggest area of need that we don't finish with this class in terms of a true quarterback and not just an athlete. I see us winning about 8 games regular season and going to a decent bowl. If we figure out the quarterback spot early in the season then we could win 9 or 10.

Franklin is 3 to play 3 i think, Sean White still has another 3 years. So no matter who wins out on the quarterback race this year, we should have them for at least another two years after which puts us in a good spot without even taking a quarterback this class.

My biggest concern and the guy I would love to see fill the spot would be tailback and getting Akers to fill the spot. If we have a good season and showcase a good running game, we could move up the list for him quick and he is big enough to be an every down back.

I don't see why RBs need to see us run the ball good this season. If anything, even when all else fails we still focus on our running attack. Peyton Barber had no business getting a 1000 yards with his abilities, but he did while asplitting the carries with other backs. Then you throw in the fact that in 2013 our offense led the whole nation in rushing and twice our RBs led the SEC in rushing recently, so you would think that Running Backs would be getting in line to play here.
