Not concerned. Timing of the coaching change made it impossible to keep some bodies in the class and difficult to finish out the class. Like I said elsewhere, we have top quality but not quantity in this class. We are recruiting offensive linemen again, which Gus seemed to stop doing altogether.
Recruiting has picked up nicely in 2022 already.
We will be fine.
Thank you for your faux concern.

This and all this. I’ll give the guy a pass on the first class after being on the job less than a month and a half.

What makes you say this? We have 3 commitments with an average ranking of like 86. The 5* QB we thought we might get to jump start the class just committed to our second biggest rival and the 5* RB we were supposedly the favorite for is now going to our biggest rival.
We currently have 1 CB for a player in the top 250 who is #174.

This! So much this!
Given how long he has been on the job, and th restrictions he had with COVID, I'm very pleased. We honestly don't know how many of the players committed to Gus will work in Hartsin's system. They could have been total mismatches.
He knows the roster, and he knows what he's looking for to make his system go. He will find the right pieces.
At least he didn't arbitrarily inflate the class rating by signing 16 four star WRs, most of whom won't ever see the field.

"Top Quality"?
Recruiting offensive lineman?
Where are these guys, because I certainly don't see them on your list. I DO see a big pull away from mighty South Alabama. Is this the elite talent you are referring to, perhaps?
Auburn fired Malzahn in December, knowing that they might as well get a jump on a new coach, because Malzahn would have been certain to be fired after 2021, with the apocalyptic season that is coming.
