But look at the last 8 years. Those Ds should have made VT very attractive
to recruits. But it was recruiting misses over those years previous years - not the last 2 where we have been just "average" on D - which has led to the decline in talent on that side of the ball, and the plummeting ranking as a result.
Which is to say, we were missing out on top talent when we WERE a top D, and those misses are why we are no longer a top D.
