If you want more on this go listen to Swain's show yesterday. They broke down the 2011-2014 recruiting classes by players and their offer lists. It really puts things into perspective showing how few of those kids are still here and many of the guys we recruited only had 1 or 2 big offers.
Thanks for the heads up on this. Nearly half of what would now be the senior class (2011) is gone.
Players gone for a plethora of reasons...
