Well, Dimel has redshirted his classes I assume. That means his first class are redshirt sophomores and last years class are redshirt freshmen. Bringing in jc players would allow him to have some players with some experience and maybe a year older? But, it also tells me that he has decided that he has to win this year so he is gambling on the jc players to help rather than depending on what he has in house. As I said, coaches only expect 50% of their jc players to pan out.
Three recruits are offense and eight are defense. The running back and the OT are Texas high school kids. Cy Ranch produces good football players and he is rated 3 stars. That is probably a good get, especially for the future. The other offensive play, I am assuming, who is listed as Ath will probably be a receiver or maybe used in the defensive backfield. Just a guess. But, more clearly, he has tried to do something on the defensive side of the ball with seven of the eight defensive players being jc players.
I'm sure many would agree that the defense needed to be better. Personally, I believe it was the offense that needed to be better, but true to form, I believe he thinks his offense is just fine. I am now days trying to refrain from negative, insulting comments about the powers that be and so I will leave it at that. Digging a little deeper he is bringing in 4 defensive linemen, 2 inside linebackers and a couple of cornerbacks. Hopefully, we can come up with a pass rush and stop the long runs. Also, the cb's might help stop giving up long completions on third downs. Again, it appears that Dimel thinks the offense is just dandy just the way it is.
