How in the lord's name have you reached the conclusion that half our currrent starting offensive line was underrated by Rivals?
P.J. Lonergan - 3* 5.5 - Another over achiever
Alex Hurst - 3* 5.6 - Seeing a trend yet?
Greg Shaw - 4* 5.8 - Again
^^ proof
and its difficult to be drafted in the first round as anything but a tackle. It's even harder when you are not draft eligible (sarcasm). The fact is that they are big parts of this team. Regardless if they will be drafted in the first round or not, they have out preformed their rankings by rivals. HENCE, my point.

recruit rankings are hit or miss thanks for the 1,000th thread about this all of these threads just make it seem like all of you are really insecure about this class, and are trying desperately to prove to yourselves that you are not disappointed it's ok to admit that you might be a bit disappointed
Well, I am disappointed!!
Especially after our record the last 10 years, a 13-1 season and playing in the BCS NC game, we can't garner any better public image or reputation to make us a "destination" that some recruits have to be told 'we can't take you because we don't have room'. And yet we can't even fill up to a 25 man class.

Here's what I'll say: the concept that first round draft picks don't help make a college football team elite is so incorrigibly stupid and indefensible that I refuse to argue it.
Obviously. You just made a point in another thread along the lines of things not being black and white.

In fact, this whole thread is like a traipse through a Kafkaesque labyrinth of dried dog feces. The original poster wanted to demonstrate that stars were "meaningless" and hence posted a list of 2008 recuits.
That's not the way I saw it. I thought he was alluding to the "black and white" thing.

Sometimes all I can do is shake my head. People will go to any lengths just to avoid admitting that the class isn't superlative.
I still don't know where you're getting this. Please direct me to some of these posts. I enjoy a good laugh.
