there is enought young talent on the roster now to help carry us for the next 3 years. Even on the D line, provided they develop and improve. Uko and Woods are two big guys that can clog the middle. The way Kiffin recruits can lead to some great athletes coming in and some will be whiffs. he is only going after top tier talent and if he gets 5-6 immediate contributors in each class, SC will be fine. He will be able to take some chances on lower tier talent with that first class of 25.
Losing on that JC dt that went to Missouri came back to haunt us. He would have been critical this coming year. All in all we are ok so far...2012 will be a high profile year for the Trojans as we make a run for the Nat Championship. An undefeated season, Barkley Heisman run will keep us in top recruits mind and help our momentum. Plus the extra practices before the bowl game will hep the young roster develop.
Thanks for a good write up
