My grades for the class, plus national school who signed the best class at that position
QB- needed-0 got-0/1, depending on Bauserman INC/A
Best national-no team signed more than 1 stud, let ND,scUM, and Clemson argue over who has the best
RB-needed 2 got-2 Saine is the next great Buckeye back, and Herron is very solid A
Best national-William Green, Joe McKnight, and Marc Tyler at USC might be the best collective RB class ever signed at one school
WR/TE needed 2-3 got-2-3 Washington and Sanzenbacher should be very good, Torrence or Clifford switches,IMO A
Best national-LSU snagged Tolliver, a bunch of other HS studs and the #1 JUCO WR in the country, Tennessee was very good and deep as well, same w/ Texas
OL- needed 3 got-1 This is my post , so I can bitch. Class of 08' or not, I feel we needed to sign more than 1 OG in this class. I'm not going to pass judgment on Blankenship, but only signing 1 guy is inexcusable. D
Best national-Texas signed a bunch of instate studs, as did Georgia.
DL- needed 2-3 DT, 1 DE got-1 DT, 1 DE Martin would have been icing on the cake, not a make or break need. I think we needed to sign more than 1 DT, although Heyward looks quick and explosive on film. C- on quantity/overall, A- on quality
Best national-Florida,LSU, and USC all signed scary good DL classes, w/ talent and #'s, although qualifying will be a bugaboo for the SEC schools
LB- needed 0/1, got-2 A+ 2 mean, fast playmakers on the outside, can't ask for more than that
Best national-Tennessee signed some highly recruited in-state guys, USC got 3 studs, no one real standout class like last year for the Buckeyes,IMO
DB-needed 4, got 5-6 A+ Quantity and quality. Clifford will a be a stud somewhere, Scott will be a stud, Oliver is getting strangely underrated by most, same w/ Torrence-if he waited until signing day, he would have been one of the top stories in the nation
Best national-Tennessee signed about 20 guys who could play either WR or DB, including the #1 in the country, Texas signed some studs as well
Overall-I give the class a B/B- due solely to the lack of linemen recruits. The staff was sloppy/overconfident/not as concerned as the fans, but they needed to do better in the trenches. As far as the skill positions go-Woooooooooeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!
