two questions for CC, David or anyone on recruiting

First, VT seems to be doing well thus far recruiting OL, running back, receiver, DL, and even the defensive backfield; but so far is having trouble at LB. Brent formerly was a great recruiter of LBs at Happy Valley. Do you think his lack of success as head coach has hurt his ability to recruit as position coach? secondly, how does the quality and number of recruits at this stage of recruiting for 2027 compare to previous classes for Pry, Fuente and Beamer?

I like Pry but his recruiting was just "okay" if you look closely.

WR recruiting was decent? Greene is the only above avg WR so far

Isn’t it a bit too early to panic?**

I didn't read it as panic, sounded more like an objective question to me**

Strikes me as typical whining on this board. Sheesh.**

Can we answer or simply ignore a post without being critical of the person
