Not sure how many but it’s a small number that are still around from Frost’s first recruiting class. He did a great job considering the time he had and he was preparing for a big bowl game. Unfortunately too many just didn’t hang around too long. It’s going to get better but losing 9 of 11 one score games needs to change and I believe it will.Our recruiting rankings the last 5 years need to be taken with an enormous grain of salt. Whatever ranked number is assigned should have a huge asterisk next to it. Yes all teams lose players, and I don't have the data for comparison, but it seems we've lost more than our fair share of players after signing day. It's obvious but we gotta keep em here if we expect development.
It will get better now that we have what appears to be a competent AD and a coach with a good amount of leeway. HC turnover can't be underestimated, even when the coach needs to go. There is still fallout that only time and consistency can repair.
