    WSU's numbers are INSANE.

    2010: Signed 26, 12 gone already.
    2011: Signed 29, 18 gone already.
    2012: Signed 27, 13 gone already.
    2013: Signed 28, 7 gone already.

    Holy Shit, Cuogs

    We're attriting the right way.

    Leach ran off most of the dead wood that Wulff was piling up. Wulff's recruiting got consistently worse as the years wore on....
    If that was possible. It doesn't really excuse the 7 already gone for 2013.

    Btw, we played a Freshmen and walk ons during the O line decimation time It's a matter of coaching as much as the talent of the players. You know that.


    And you got taken to the wire by WSU, gave up 7 sacks, and got man handled by Arizona. If you didn't get some guys back it would have been more of the same. You did and got back on track.

    Yes, but that sure is getting old.

    Yes but, if we're young and athletic and play with an edge we can win if well coached.

    Article was not about being young. It was about recruited players leaving at huge numbers.

    Which makes for a young team.

    But seriously, young teams can win, so it shouldn't be an excuse. I agree with you. Just wanted to look into recruiting with the article and thought the attrition rate stuff was pretty interesting.

    I still think this team can win 9 or 10 games if all goes right. But I also don't think there is much talent on this team.

    If all goes right..... Great qualifier as always. Things will get better or worse. Depending on how things go.
    either way it'll be interesting.

    Is saying we are young a whoosh? This team isn't young. Every player in the front 7 had at least one year starting experience entering the year. Littleton would be 8. Peters would be the 9th player with at least one season worth of starts. Most of them had two or three. The secondary is young

    On offense, the OL has tons of experience, Mickens, Kasen, Ross had some starts and returned kicks last year. QB and RB are the only spots we are young on offense.

    That's why I didn't get why damone pulled out the young thing.
