Looking at the recruiting rankings, if memory serves (don't roast me if I get this wrong)
Kobe Brown, Mark Smith, Torrence Watson and Jeremiah Tilmon were 4-star recruits. Generally most 4-star recruits should be able to fit in with any roster and with even average development be able to start for most P5 teams once they're sophomores or juniors like those guys (Brown excepted) are.
Either we're exceptional at finding 4-star recruits that are destined to underperform, or we're exceptional at not developing 4-star recruits, or we've just run into some bad luck lately with a sample size of n=4.
So...we *should* have some pretty solid pieces to our team...but for whatever reason it hasn't worked out this year. Last year it seemed we just didn't have the horses on the roster. This year it seems like we've got some dudes...but they're just not playing very well in most games.
