There are no others buddy lol those 4 guys are our only interior DL takes the for the 22 and 23 classes. You think people were happy with landing 2 mid 4*, 1 borderline 4* and a 3* over 2 classes? Maybe you weren’t paying attention but it’s been heavily discussed here the last 12+ months.
It’s been pretty consensus here for quite some time that Bo is a good coach/developer but a shit recruiter. This isn’t something new that just popped up.
As has been stated we have a couple extra scholarships, if he develops he helps cover up some of Bo’s shitty 2022 and 2023 recruiting and if he doesn’t you ship him off in January. Literally a no lose situation.
There’s a chart in the article, if you add up everybody else and compare them to Saban/Bama it’s pretty staggering. Drafted Bama 71% vs Field 59% but 1st rounders Bama 45% vs Field 17%. The mother fucker could develop no doubt.
I was a little off, 71% drafted and 45% went in the 1st round. Link below with the full article.

Saban did a good job of churning his roster but his development was also outrageous. People have ran the numbers and his hit rate on 5* was around 50% while the rest of CFB’s was 20-25%.
Yea it’s been mentioned on Twitter that the schools themselves are the driving force behind this and not the NCAA. Apparently it has gotten so out of hand the schools were having to book hotel rooms an extra day before just to have everything decorated, an unnecessary expense and pain in the ass.
We would much rather have either of these 2 over Staes, I’m not sure what the obsession is with him. ND mods said he would have been 3rd on the depth chart if he stayed, give me the guys that aren’t JAGs.
Publicly throwing your current players under the bus and he came out and said they weren’t going to be a atm for players which leads me to believe they don’t have the NIL buy in doesn’t exactly help with recruiting efforts.
Gerry also mentioned in the Evan Stewart thread that FSU received a 5 million dollar donation to their NIL fund last week, sounds like they’ll be major players in the portal.
