Another year of solid results from the team and that should come.
He has a pretty impressive offer list of 13 P5 programs including the NC runner up. Teams from PAC, SEC, Big12, BIG, ACC and this is still early, What more do you want? Looks like he should be rated higher based on offer list.
Not really. When Fitz came in we were already at our nadir on the recruiting front. That was the 2006 Bacher class where Bacher and Kevin Mims were the only 3 stars in the class (and uncoincidentally the only two who ended up being starters for us). It was worse than this year’s class.
Don't count on the solid results for the next couple years, Last years team was built for success and to win but with graduations and big losses through the portal, we are going to be very undermanned unless there is a huge influx of talent through portal and hard to see that happening.
Will wait to see what happens with baited breath. If the amazing work that was done in the DL room is a reflection of the coaching and development we are going to be seeing in terms of doing more with less with the addition of these FCS guys, maybe, just maybe we are gonna be alright.
Maybe eventually but initially we are going to be at a significant talent deficit because of what we lost in portal. Usually takes a couple years for any development effect to make a difference
It might take a few seasons under Braun to get to that point as a result of the B1G expansion and getting used to the new dynamics of it. It seems we will still have many of our B1G West rivals still on the schedules, but the addition of the ex PAC 12 teams will throw a wrench into things I think. Making a bowl will be harder during the next two seasons.
