certainly appears the strength of the class. And also getting some love from Olive Branch should be good for future reference.</p>
Good overall. Not great. But gotta like the OL class...

I'm sure most will interpret this as trying to make something bad sound good, but I really believe it. If I had to accept an overall average signing class, but could excel in one area only, it would be signing quality o-linemen . . . no doubt about it. I think we've managed to do that this year.
In my opinion, quality football starts and ends with the offensive line. They can make or break an offense regardless of the quality of the skill positions. They can make all american skill players look average and average skill players like all americans. Plus, solid o-line play helps you control the pace of the game. As a result of that, your defense can stay fresh. It's very difficult to overcome a shoddy line.
Overall, not a sexy class, but I won't complain either. We'll get the Top 20 classes once we figure out how to get to a couple bowl games.

makes this a good signing day. It all starts with the big uglies and we've got some giant frames for Balis to work with in this class. I'll take it all day, twice on Sunday.
This is a great class, because it fills the needs we have with guys that are more talented than what we usually bring in. Robinson is a guy that Croom would have never gotten in here. Maybe a project, buy I trust Balis and Hevesy. Muniz, Clausell, Day, and others have the size needed to play in the SEC. We good faster and more talented at WR, we good good LB's in Bohanna and Hughes, good lineman in Howie, Carmon, Eulls, and Virges, a QB, some RB's, and some CBs/safeties. We filled a spot at every position, and got talent there. Croom filled his classes with mostly 2 stars. Mullen filled his with mostly 3 stars. We are upgraded the talent here. This is a good class for us. </p>
There's 3 of them, but here's one<div>

I like the fact that Day just doesn't stop. He gets down the field and keeps looking for guys to hit, he keeps blocking until the play's over, and he gets out in front of the runner downfield to throw extra blocks.
I am impressed, hopefully that motor and effort will continue to help him do well at this level.
