There were a lot of things set up against them. A class like this is going to help you in certain ways. That's what you want out of any recruiting class. At the same time, the depth wasn't quite up to what Tennessee is accustomed to.
Is this class good enough to compete in the SEC? Sure it is. But I don't think it's where Tennessee wants to be. I still think they want to be in that top 10 every year. That's where they expect to be and should.
