Next years recruiting will tell a lot more than this year. Only one spot remaining, and possibly not even that depending on who you talk to. Ernie is going to do as good a job as can be done in Pullman. Next years team will be 3 to 6 wins better than this team, and will be more competitive even if losing. After that a lot will depend on how Que, Ike, and hopefully Isabell develop this coming season. I think Ernie will recruit well for the 5 man class coming up, but even he is likely to get kids who need at least one season before they contribute a lot.
