I didn't see any discussion on Sully's article that was posted 2 days ago, covering the final class of Frank Spaziani. (Thanks for the writeup Sully)There were definitely some great players to come out of it (Simmons, Daniels), and a couple other contributors, but overall it was not too successful, and I think we can all agree it showed on the field.
Out of 17 players, you have 6 players who fall into the OK to great category. I'm leaving Giacone out but I think he will be an important player this season so that can easily change. Then there are 8 transfers, for various reasons, 1 player who never really saw the field in any significance (but didn't transfer), and 1 player who stopped playing football after injuries.
Overall, less than half of the class had an on field impact.
Stand-outs (relatively speaking):
-Steven Daniels (4*)
-Justin Simmons (3*)
-Bobby Wolford (3*) (Still on Team)
Contributors:
-David Dudeck (2*)
-Mike Strizak (3*) (Still on Team)
-Jim Cashman (3*) (Still on Team)
Negligible Impact:
-Frank Taylor (3*)
Significant Injuries:
-Tim Joy (3*) (Done w/football)
-Malachi Moore (2*) (Transfer - One year of solid performance)
-Harrison Jackson (2*) (Transfer)
-Michael Giacone (3*) (Still on Team)
Off-Field Issues:
-Bryce Jones (2*) (Transfer)
Transferred for Playing Time/Other:
-Win Homer (4*)
-Dan Crimmins (3*)
-Nigel Matthews (2*)
-Joel Zoungrana (2*)
-George Craan (2*)
