Just in case the 2 recent quiet months didn't reign in our hopes for the class of '09 enough, perhaps this ESPN article gives us the dose of reality necessary. We're improving and that's great, but there's still a lot of mountain left to climb. Let's not kid ourselves.

Have you ever looked at ESPN rankings...they give a whole bunch of guys 40. This is because they don't get a chance to scout them. We have two...Spencer, and Treadwell. Both are 4 star guys at Rivals.
I will say that I am glad that our staff is so diligent and patient and here is why...You fill up on a class quickly, and you can miss out on some guys. Look at a guy like Cascareno (sp?) What if we had quickly taken a couple OT/OG's quickly in the last two months. This guy had no offers, we offer him, and now he is blowing up. You miss out on guys like that if your class is done in April, eight months before signing day.
