Depth concerns
We are only 3 full seasons old. Soon to be 4. We expected to go D1-A within 5 years. We're almost 2 years early. Just that we are ahead of schedule on the D1-A move and it shows on the depth chart. Some of the players are still D1-AA caliber and size.
That's not a knock on the players. Just a fact that some probably won't be starting on some D1-A rosters. I'm sure that the needs of the offense will be addressed this season.
That will soon change.
I agree that the strategy needs to change. I think that Coach Schnell need to get away from his "FAU territory from Tampa to Orlando to Miami theory" and get to the southern states and the midwest to get the beef into the lineup.
That's what all the out of states school brag about. Beef from the midwest and speed from Florida! Been quoted many times.
The size and girth recruits will be coming soon.

A few years back there were 74 starters/contributers on the top 25 rosters.
I'm sure there are some hungry farm boys in Wisconsin who would love some November/December sunshine. Now that the NCAA has cracked down on recruiting visits we better be careful with the South Beach angle.. ;D
Or….Maybe we can shift the border about 900 miles north of Tally. You think Coach Schnell will notice.. :D

The coaches may have felt at the beggining of the season we had enough depth as to not waste the freshman and now with only three games left is it worth the price - you could argue both side equally well here. Give them expirence for success next year or let them develope slower and keep them for a full four years.
Though decision for the coaches - if it works your a genuis, if not then you can debate you should have brought in the freshman's.
