[QUOTE="gibb52, post: 1346004, member: 6471"] We have what, 36 freshmen/rs freshmen? Lots of them starting or at least in regular rotation. Unless you are Bama or OSU with 20 5 star freshmen you will struggle mightily with that much youth. Next year those 36 players will be sophs. With a year in the weight room, a year of CFB experience, and a year of becoming more familiar with the systems. We will have another recruiting class and some rs frosh that didn't play this year. More experience, more size and strength, more depth. I don't expect a B1G champion next yr but I expect significant improvement. How much we improve will depend a lot on the QB position. If Thomas or one of the incoming kids can play reasonably well we could be a bowl team IMO. [/QUOTE]
