In response to Tiger69
I'll reiterate that I don't believe Harvard has had the best recruiting classes in recent years. Yes, the Crimson has been competitive in having the highest-rated individual recruit each of the last four years, but from the depth of class perspective, I'd disagree.
The 2011 class with Wes, Steve, Jonah, Kenyatta and Corbin was an unreal display of top-end talent and depth, but since, Amaker has seen his depth hurt by some cases of Byerly Hall saying no to kids that went on to play at BCS schools and other cases of finishing a close second to a variety of schools. Then, the 2016 class and Siyani's ACL happened, and I think a lot of folks are so focused on that potential that they're willing to have realistic expectations for this season.
