I think you're wrong. Dismantling USC in that atmosphere would have done wonders. Instead we're 4-3 and have put the thought back into the heads of recruits that we can't yet be taken seriously.
Winning would only helped for sure but answering your question about the lack of significant news we've gotten up 'til now anything other than a disappointment is completely wrong IMO.
All I'm saying is in a blowout win I don't see any of these guys that plan on waiting to announce to do to all of a sudden announce because of the experience.
Win or lose it wasn't expected that there was going to be a lot of commits this week as there are just to many elite prospects that are going to wait. This past weekend was about sell job to either get there foot in the door and/or to be in it to the end.
Then there is the fact that the few kids that might verbal it might take days for them to decide and announce.
