    Finally got through it. Good cast fellas.

    However, your opening comments about the class overall was a little underwhelming. It seemed you weren't all that excited.
    But, when you dug into the class player by player it was giant "boners" and "jacking it" comments for 65 minutes.

    If Swaye, had to take a shot every time "jacking it" was said he would be dead.

    Rapp, just might end up being the star of this class? When all said and done.

    I think I'm most excited for Levi in the class ... he's got a chance to be an absolute game changing beast. But Rapp is right up there and I'd be absolutely shocked if he isn't starting by the end of the year.

    The class IMO was a mixed bag. There's no question that by the end of the class, as we're going through our defensive recruits there's boner inducing player after boner inducing player. As I mentioned during the pod Gilchrist is probably good enough to be a multi year starter at a number of PAC schools and he's probably the "weakest" defensive recruit that we had. That's a really strong defensive class. But offensively, we whiffed on Eason (we can debate how much that mattered). McGrew and Twatty were nice gets offensively ... but that's really about it there. It's hard to see any of the other offensive recruits being guys that we're going to look back as difference makers. Add to it that we only took 2 OL and 1 DL (unless you consider Amandre Williams a DE) and there's the potential for some weakness on the lines. I expect that we'll be looking at a strong class there in 2017 but you never know with injuries, retirements, etc. on the lines.

    If this class had a difference maker at WR, I think we'd all feel a lot better on the class. It's definitely a strong class and there's a foundation set for the defensive side of the ball for years to come. Paying attention to the 2017 class to see if we can see a decided pick up on the offensive side of the ball with positive momentum is what I'm looking to see.

    A member of pod A is critiquing the members of pod B. This could get fun. Let the games begin.

    Ya, that was a piercing critique... they may end their lives over it.
    I'm literally crying.

    However, I think you just got a primacy/recency thing going there.

    The mixed reviews are due to lack of OL and shitty WRs. We ended on 8 straight players we love, but the start was not so positive.

    Anyway, stop making me cry with your mean words and THANKS FOR LISTENING YOU MEAN JERK TIME!!!!
