I know a fellow that, every year come July or so, honestly believes that OM should be playing for a national championship at the end of the football season.

You can't base it off of what they are now. You have to base it off of what they could have been under us. Martin could have been as good as Boyd in my opinion. Pretty sure we would be ok with that coming back this year.
Kailo would have been the one guy I'm not sure we would have been able to find a spot for last year or this upcoming year. That's why in my initial post I said minimum 2 out of 3.
As for Ward, I think he definitely could have played a solid DE or DT for us under Turner.

Bu, bu, but ESPN say they are dark horse contenders for SEC and NC!!!! I'll say it again. They better pray they get to 6 wins. Any key injuries on OL or Chicken Wing not gaining any arm strength and they'll be struggling to make a bowl.

We are pretty diverse on both sides of the ball- moreso than they are- and that allows us to use our recruits in ways that they "want" to be used a lot of times and then also maximize the ways that the recruit wants to be used.

Based on what I saw of Martin in high school, I think he would have been more like Kaleb Eulls. Agree on Kalio- he and Holloway are bascially the same player except that Holloway is more durable. Best case scenario for him was that he ended up like Jameon.
