[QUOTE="CuseJacket, post: 748909, member: 274"] I think it's worth bumping this thread, given the arguments around overall roster talent and expected results. There is a lot of emotion around X's and O's vs. Jimmys and Joes after losses to UCF and Syracuse. Some warranted, some not, in my opinion. Summarizing my position from two posts up: [LIST] [*]Yes, we have a lot more raw talent this year [*]No, we should not expect it to be effective this year [*]There are positional variances that are more important and material to W and L any given year i.e., talent on the OL and DL [/LIST] There is some "conflating" going around that expects a year 1 talent increase to equal year 1 results. That is not how this works at any school, with any coach. Experience and S&C is required outside of surefire 5*, of which we have zero per the 247 composite. This means you'll typically reap the benefits 2-3 years down the road, and I see no reason to believe that GT will be the exception. In another post referenced I made prior to game 1 here: [URL]https://gtswarm.com/threads/acc-discussion-2020.22036/post-740493[/URL] And our 2020 class is considered 2nd best in the recruiting ranking era behind the 2007 group. Of our top 20 players listed above, how many should realistically be making a material impact 3 games into the 2020 season, accounting for age and injuries? My expectation was and continues to be maybe 2 or 3 at best. I'd be interested in hearing other perspectives on this, particularly where others disagree. [/QUOTE]
