You’re totally right. A team full of 3 stars will almost always lose to a team full of 5 stars.
...good thing Auburn doesn’t and never is going to have a team full of 3 stars.
Y’all are comparing being able to recruit players for 6 weeks tops versus being able to recruit for an entire year or two or three of four.
Realize that’s what this new staff was up against. Moving forward, there is no reason to believe that they will not produce the type of recruiting classes that come with the benefits of time and solid relationships (those take more than 6 weeks to build).
