Let me know you thoughts on our recruiting. I think we hit up our areas of concern.

Defense - All of it
QB- Getting a backup for Kolb
Offensive line -Coach Briles always gets the big uglies for the O line
WR - Let's see if we can get some of these guys qualified (unlike last year.

Here is CFN's take on our recruiting
