Yet the results on the field haven't gotten better, and based solely on won-loss record things have gotten worse since Joe Trainor's last year. Are these recruits actually better then who we were bringing in before, or does this staff do a better job of hyping the guys coming in? What specifically about this class is going to change things? And if they are truly better then what we were recruiting before, does that mean Fleming can't coach the talent he's bringing in?
It just takes time in football. The transition from HS to college is much more dramatic than in basketball, because of how important physicality is. Even if this class is great, you might not know it next year. Hopefully the guys brought in previously will start to reach their potential this year, and give us something to build on when this group comes into their own.
Agree with pretty much all of this. Normally they say the third year is key for a coach. Most of the team should be Fleming's at this point, so he should be able to have his desired systems in place instead of adapting his style to the players he has. The 247 rankings are certainly a nice sign. If Fleming is who most of the people on here think, the recruiting rankings are reasonably accurate, and assuming average health then anything less then three wins this season should be considered a major disappointment from all.

Lord knows I've been critical of the team, but they do have the cards stacked against them. Three wins and competitive in pretty much every game should be the goal this year, with going even in the FCS games the next.
