@Cdog923 Owa always kinda stood out as one of Bo's biggest misses, though what stood out even more was Bo not really being able to land any big DL recruits in the aftermath of Suh. Were the Davis twins his only 4* DL guys? And they didn't even get to play for him.

That will always be one of the biggest mysteries of Bo's tenure to me: how he wasn't able to parlay the best defensive tackle in the history of college football into success on the recruiting trail.

That is said a lot but I'm not sure it's really true.  Suh's national prominence really took off his senior year (2009).  By that time the recruiting for the Class of 2010 was on the downhill finish.  In 2011, we got four-star Todd Peat, he just didn't work out.  In 2012 we got four-star Greg McMullen (solid but not spectacular), Vincent Valentine (NFL), and Avery Moss (NFL).  In 2013 we got Randy Gregory (not quite the same position but still DL) and Maliek Collins (NFL).  

So in the three classes after Suh we got four NFL guys and two more four-stars.  That seems like pretty good success.

I think when people say that they are basically saying we didn't get another Suh.  But that's a pretty unrealistic expectation.

I miss that thread, several hundred pages of awesomeness. Is that the longest thread in HB history?

I think the Frost thread from a few years ago might have surpassed it?

The singularly impressive season that Suh had in 2010, being the culmination of two years of work with Bo and his scheme, should really have translated into at least one or two 5 star-caliber players. 

 
Yeah, I'm not really expecting any action here, but what time is the announcement?
