I bet we are younger. There are a bunch of guys with another year of experience, but there also are a number of outgoing seniors (Chase, Poynter, Bonilla, Elizee, Handy, etc.) being replaced by younger guys. Overall, however, it certainly looks like the talent level is up significantly.

Just the reputation we have. Believe it or not, sometimes people exaggerate on here.

not to mention we pruned what was it 10-12 upperclassmen off the roster by jerking scholarships. A few weeks ago I counted something like 20 players who left the roster from prior August 2008 Roster-and I believe a few more are gone since. (btw we are going to take at a minimum 22 recruits in the next class)

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.
