pure talent wise

[dherd]

Pure talent-wise, other than Clemson or Florida State, Marshall was one of the better teams N.C. State faced last season.

Doc Holliday has always been an excellent recruiter, especially in the state of Florida. The Herd has talent up and down the roster. Not coincidentally, the best skill players are from the Sunshine State.

[Y.A.G Si Ye Nots]

No to Clemson. No to Florida State. No to Notre Dame. No to South Carolina. No to an 8-5 Louisville. So, already they are 6th out of 13 or 4th out of 11, at best, in terms of talent. Did they have more pure talent than a 7-6 Arizona State? I highly doubt it. 5th out of 11. Did they have more talent than an 8-5 Wake Forest or 7-6 Boston College? Again, unlikely. I think the reporter exaggerated just a bit.
