They missed big in some areas but we got A+ grades on QB, OL, and LB this class.
Probably a B- class overall but not indicative of a staff that is dead in the water. Just a terrible finish to a B- class IMO
Kinda seems like a cycle. Staff kills 2-3 positions a year and the rest seem average

pretty much spot on Jonesy.
Missed on an edge rusher, unless Moultry ends up the guy there (I think he does).
I really like Barrett at RB as well and I'm in in the minority, but i like Alaric Williams if he can stay healthy. So I like our RB class too.
Not too impressed with the secondary, but losing McGriff took us from a great finish with Hunter to basically nothing.
Considering the staff recruited all offseason under the cloud of Gus being fired and even a few weeks into the season (until LSU). Then we finished the year with a dud and that caused MORE unrest amongst fans. That makes us an easy target to negative recruit against. So, all being taken into account it is a fine class, but nothing elite.

Won't lie, having our two rivals finishing with the #1 and #3 recruiting classes after we got worked by both last season (and the two seasons previous) is really starting to piss me off.
I'm happy with the class, but I need the red meat of victory over either UGA or Alabama in some aspect of the sport to stay sane.
