It is, but you also need to look at who left. Our 3 lowest rated recruits left. I am unsure if you can even call them busts if they never really do anything as they were rated so low. One being Realus who obviously needed to find a team with a FB. The ones who left that may or may not be busts: Lingard, Hightower, Ezzard, Jarren Williams. The rest of the class I think was very good.
Jordan Miller (top 2 DT); Pat Joyner (MIA since injury); Rousseau (NFL); Campbell (Starting LT); Dee Wiggins (Starting WR); Ivey (Starting CB); C. Reed (TBD); Mallory (top 2 TE); Frierson (Starting Striker); Hall (Starting S); Harris (Starting RB); Scaife (Starting RG) Blades (Starting CB); Pope (Starting WR or at worst in 2 deep); Silvera (Starting DT); Brevin (Starting TE)
So out of the 23 enrollees, 11 are starting, 3 ( Miller, pope and mallory) may very well be starting, if we had more classes like 2018 we would be a better football team
