When we matched up with Clemson last year, the number one glaring difference was depth. Depth comes from sustained success (consistent 10+ win seasons)...when you have up and down success, you have up and down recruiting.
The 3 straight 10+ hasn't changed my view on Kelly overall, but it is a step in the right direction to having sustained success that will draw sustained high level recruits and give us talent in depth comparable to the big boys. My hope is at that point, even with Kelly, we'll be able to match up with the elite and have a legit shot at a title...this is my only way to stay positive with Kelly still here.
