adds up to being better than the two players we lost. I don't think the top 2 players we gained are better than Lovett or Wingo.

The players we did get just weren't good enough to get offers from the big schools so we ended up with them. Not saying they are bad players, but there is a reason they went to Mizzou instead of Bama, LSU, or UGA once they entered the portal. Once in a while it Mizzou might get a guy who is good enough, but wants playing time...but that is probably pretty rare.
