I am a litte nervous about Butch.....Ok, so I am fully aware that any program rebuilding, in terms of coaching changes, will have issues in recruiting that first take over year; but the level of decommits and inability to bring in 4 to 5 stars seems somewhat alarming with the talent leaving us this year. (We are losing a good QB and a couple of great WR)

Should we be worried just yet?
Or should we just be patient and wait till signing day?
Does UT's "Rivals" and "ESPN Recruiting" rank (under the top 25) scare you?

In the end, where will we be- in terms of recruiting rank?

I guess seeing these players leave, I am worried that we do not have the experience needed to do well next year.

(I am also fully aware that some 2013 recruited players, by Dooley, to fit Dooley's system did not fit Butch's system, so Butch may have told the players that looking elsewhere might be better for their overall football development- which will trigger automatic decommits, but this amount of decommits and the inability to replace leaving stars with new equally starred personal seems like a problem...) :salute:

I am sure that the feeling is mutual. One of these days the 4 coaches over 6 seasons will finally register with some people.

Coach Jones and his staff is doing all that they can do given the circumstances to reel in good football players.

I have the man's back.

Are people generally feeling better now? I'm looking for some results out of last weekend and this weekend. I keep seeing these threads and posts about how great the staff is doing. Where are the elite commits?

If they get 2 of the 4 Lawson, Green, Bell, and North I will have faith in the staffs recruiting efforts. If they win at least 7 games next year I'll have faith in there coaching abilities.

Johnny Majors had it spot on about the "legions of the miserable" can we not go just one week without someone jumping off the cliff because the sky is falling

I wonder if that's what drove him to drink.

This is a dumb thread for the recruiting forum.

Why would anyone want to talk about how recruiting is going in the recruiting forum?

2-4 out of those super elite guys sounds like a very good result, particularly if one of them is Green. Given the OL we will have next year and all the questions most everywhere else I consider the signing of an elite RB who can run between the tackles to be the likely difference between a 6/7 win ceiling and a 8/9 win ceiling for 2013. I know there have been changes, but CJG is supposed to the man on point here and he's had some time both here and at SC to build the relationships. I'm having a bit of a hard time understanding why this obviously dire area of need has not been filled yet.
