My overall take on the Recruiting Season

1 - The coaches did one phenomenal job this season. Just a small list of the distractions these coaches dealt with...
-Overall ESPN saga
-Maurice Clarret saga
-New Recruiting Coordinator
-Loss of 3 coaches from last year
-The Troy Smith issues
-Retirement of Geiger
-The national press on how "poor" our offense was

2 - Not only did we recruit 18 wonderful athletes but each one has high character and handled this process with high character. How many other schools can be proud of the way that each one of their signees handled the process...NOT many.

3 - We have a great nucleus coming back in 05 and a pretty good one in 06 so this class needed to add to that and we did with great versatility. This has been spoke of throughout the process but take another look...
