Realistically, we are coming off back to back to back losing seasons. We have a brand new coaching staff who has just started to build a relationship with some of these players. Honestly, if I were a five star recruit, it would be hard to say 'no' to Nick Saban. If you want to win a national championship as a player, it is hard to question Saban's ability to get you there. I am as hopeful as anybody that we can land a few more big names in this class, but I am also realistic and know that it may not be as we hope. If not, I am very impressed with the job that Jones' staff has done even getting us in the mix with some of these guys this soon after coming on board. I think good things are ahead for UT football. We desperately need to win 8 or more games this year and kind of get back on the map a little bit. A winning season, a bowl game, and Jones' ability to relate to these kids can only mean good things for 2014 recruiting.
