[QUOTE="smathis30, post: 594843, member: 1803"] Depth matters, but 10% of the game doesnt decide the game. Clemsons 3rd and 4th string receivers didnt burn us. 1st ones did. Same with Pitt. Same with Duke. Starters decide games. Our LB play has been our weakness since 2015 and everyone graudated last year on the front 7 of a 100th ranked defense that none of the other LBs could sniff playing on. I argued in a thread that our secondary was going to struggle last year. People said our recruiting would make it better than what it was in 2017. I said experience was more important, and if they were better, they would have started. we dropped from 50th to 113th in pass defense. I really don't want to have that argument again. 2015 wasn't due to injuries, it was due to us graudating 7/8 of our skill players on offense. We lost OL, yes, but our inability to do anything with A backs wasn't do to that. We had 16 people get their first start ever in 2015, and 12/16 got it because the person ahead of them in 2014 graduated or they beat someone else out in the depth chart that season who only started because the person ahead of them in 2014 graduated. So looking at depth matters, but only towards the future. 2014 wasn't bad because we had 3-9 depth behind it, it was good because it had 7 NFL players starting on it, which was the second best NFL talent starting team in CPJs tenure. Saying the cupboard is bare is stupid. There was only 1 more NFL draft pick on the recruiting classes between 2009 and 2015 than what was on that 2008 team. Second team isnt nearly as important as first team, just look at 2014. [/QUOTE]
