Ha. I hear ya. People are just upset over our performance (not so much the loss, but the performance) on 1/9. Add to that the very public Collins commit to Bama and the Kiel thing...
The cuts run deep for many Tiger fans. Lot of invested emotion. Takes a while to heal.

But we'll all get over it...eventually.

Truth is, even though there may not be a lot of hype for this class, there are a couple of guys who might be able bring smiles to Tigers fans again. For example, a guy like the Dural kid from Breaux Bridge. He's a 4 star, I think, but seemingly hasn't generated a lot of hype. Haven't seen him live, but on film he looks very smooth, very athletic. I know he's not very big physically, but I think he could become a big time SEC performer. And you're right, the LBs could have an immediate positive impact.
