Where this class lacked in quantity, they most certainly didn't lack in quality. Also Wiggins will be an absolute stud in the coming years so I'll throw him in there too.

Wiggins just needs to get that foot healthy. I imagine he will be a monster when he's competing against Emery Jones and Will Campbell in practice.

Agree... super excited to see what Fitzgerald West does as he gets a year under his belt. Size, strength, technique, and especially quickness are all there for him to take over at center when the time comes.

Between the FR and transfers I think it would be hard to find another program with more impact from first year players. Mich St was able to do that to an extent last year with the portal, but we likely exceeded what they were able to do.

I'm glad Charles Turner has come into his own. He's played well. Assuming he'll still be with the team for the next year or two, then West will be able to step in once he leaves.

I was really hoping we would get either Moss or Citizen. Sucks that we lost both. Even Frank can't beat the bucks.

He shouldn’t have been, but he fell behind a bunch of skilled guys the sites were high on

And let’s not forget we have our future Quarterback in this class, with at minimum one full year learning from these coaches and in the strength and conditioning program.

Half the starters, 2 of the three kickers, and what looks like our primary punt returner now weren't on the team last year.

I forget how well Tolan has played. Perkins just grabs all the attention on defense (as he should) but away form Perkins, Tolan is doing work.

Aaron Anderson has not taken a snap this season.

not to derail.....i have it in my head that he puts on a little bit of weight and moves to DT. Similar to Brockers. helping a really shallow position on the roster next year. edge guys can be productive sooner than inside guys historically.

Agreed, and it will help with M. Smith, Wingo and S. Jones along that front 4 with him. That group with Perkins, Penn, and Tolan lurking behind them is going to be fun to watch.

it could have been because the coach who was his primary recruiter was not going to be here

Turner - Most Improved Player.
Didn't Williams get it last year?

Huge swing and a miss on 3* Mason Taylor by the recruiting services.

If we re-ranked that it would be…

1 Will Campbell
2 Jacoby Matthews
3 Emery Jones
