[QUOTE="EyeoftheIllini, post: 1350783, member: 623415"] I was actually more disappointed last year than I am this year. So, while it might not have been when Lovie was first hired, it soon became apparent to me that things were worse off than I thought they were and this wasn't going to be a quick turnaround. And as far as recruiting, though Lovie hasn't hit any major home runs I think he's getting his foot in the door with better recruits and we'll start to make some gains there. But let's be honest. It is going to take some success on the field before we start pulling in any 4* with regularity. Yet despite all that, I thought last year's class was very strong (in Illinois terms) and better than rated. And this year's class has two QBs to go along with Cam -- giving us some hope at QB. If our QB had been decent this year, I think we would have had a couple more wins. [/QUOTE]
