2011 Recruiting Class Little Help To Richt?

   Let's be honest here: Coach Richt won't get much help out of this year's recruiting class next season. Signing a few JC guys would make an impact, but come on, not too many freshmen are coming in here and playing winning football immediately. Even if Richt signs a bunch of these uncommitted Super 11 players, they aren't stepping on campus and helping us beat Boise State or South Carolina.
   Crowell has the skill set to step in Day 1 and play. Possibly Jay Rome or Ray Drew. But that's about it. 
Richt's turn-around depends on the guys that are already on campus. It's as simple as that. And that's a problem.
   That D-Line is just terrible. DeAngelo Tyson was a huge disappointent. Abry Jones wouldn't have taken a snap at Alabama. Lott did next to nothing. Geathers barely got on the field. Justin Anderson isn't going to do squat. Garrison Smith looks undersized out there. Coach Garner has done a poor job. Not sure how else you can put it. It makes my stomach turn, when I see these guys running on and off the field...and see the fat bouncing up and down.
   The O-Line looks soft too. No push, limited movement. Couldn't knock UCF off the ball. Even if Sturdivant returns, that other tackle spot looks like a big hole. Ben Jones looks mean, but I don't see a big-time player at center. Wonder who Searels thinks can step in? And word on the street is that Texas is courting his services.
   The turn-around in 2011 starts with the players on the LOS. Can't say I'm encouraged by what I see. When you look at Alabama and Florida, you see legitimate guys up front. Dudes that look the part. Big, strong, physical guys. Don't see that, when I watched the 'Dogs play. That's disappointing.
