The dream of a NCG shot is over for this season.
This is correct.

The graduation of All-American level talent from the defense probably means a three or four loss season next year. 
This is pure conjecture and adding my conjecture, given the level of our recruiting, probably wrong.

I made the second statement based on current QB performance and based on how otherworldly Murphy, Skov, et al. are playing.  Not only are they great players, they're great players at the peak of their college experience with numerous starts and stats under their belts.  That kind of veteran experience, paired with physical talent, counts for something.
