Possibly, but a lot of recruits signed during the early period. I find it hard to believe that many of the early signees didn't take a look at our offensive output and look elsewhere.Could be wrong but I'm pretty sure Tua hosted Ross on his official visit to Tuscaloosa. I just think the struggles of our offense IRT missing on recruits was a little overstated. I think after the NC game all that was kind of a wash and it came down to what it always comes down to with WRs - playing time. Clemson is losing several WRs and most of ours are coming back. That's a more logical explanation of why we missed on WRs than our offense. Same thing with RBs. We had some highly recruited backs de-commit because D Harris is coming back along with everyone else except Bo. So it makes sense that we wouldn't sign the strongest RB class ever this year..
And as for the statement that our other stud WR's kept them away more than Jalen, I think most have too big of an ego to not believe they can come in and do better themselves. They all envision themselves as the next great thing, and no other player at their position will get in their way for long. But seeing nobody there that can let them shine will turn them another way. I know that is how I would think if I was a 4 or 5 star WR. Seeing what Jalen can do, I would look elsewhere. Seeing what Tua can do, sign me up.
