Another very-good-not-quite-great class.  Monroe was by some accounts the #2 player in the country, Brown, Albert, Hall, Hall, Jackson, and Simpson were all highly heralded.  Only Monroe, Albert, and Brown saw significant time, though several others burned their redshirts.

Redshirts: 12.  Late RS: 0.  No RS: 11.  Left early: 0.  Total: 23.
