I disagree when the circumstances are like ours was. It was almost like probation when you had all 5 starters leave. Then a couple of signees go elsewhere

Ray comes in late and has to scramble to bring in the leftovers that April. Hard to find a quality signee at that point- recruiter or not.
Then Ray has to boot 2 more players because they cant stop smoking weed
Then we have 2 ACL tears

Ray's 1st season was a throwaway

Now we are an improved team this year that is still undermanned- why? More players from the former regime smoking dope or not playing because they want to redshirt and then transfer to Troy to play for Cunningham.

Bottom line- Ray has taken over a 2 year rebuild and now we should start seeing some real progress the next couple of years
