The 2016 starter breakdown was as follow; 4th year 32%, 3rd 18%, 2nd 23% and 1st 18%
The 2017 10 win team included 4th year 27%, 3rd 32%, 2nd 32% and 1st 9%. Shallow depth behind the injured starters resulted in the end of season losing streak.
Year to year there were positions that players had they stayed could have made a big difference, Kaaya after 2016, Norton and McIntosh last season.
Still based on Clemson's ratios the facts say the 4th year plus should be in the 45% range, 3rd in the 20's, 2nd in the teens and 1st in the single digits.
We have a large 3rd year class that if everyone stays will get the roster much closer to those winning ratios.
