Not to take away or have too many threads on this but just looked at how many hits we have had out of our top 3 rated recruits (by Rivals) since 2011. Very sobering stuff...but also brings home why we are where we are. If you need encouragement - it looks like Fehoko and Hinton are the real deal and we have a base to work from at least. Did this pretty quick so apologize if I made any errors.
