To be honest, who cares what OM’s recruiting rankings are as long as we take care of ours?
We need to care what every sec west team and Kentucky's are imoQuote:

If ?we? are honest, what ?we? do doesn?t make one damn difference
Price is better. Not sure how long Hunter took has anything to do with itQuote:

Price has better feet, is a smoother runner, & clearly more fluid & explosive.Quote:

MS AL Game is on right now. Can watch it for free at FNUTL.com. Ty Cooper is pretty darn good, y’all. Should be ranked higher. He is a bigger recruit than I thought.
He has a great frame. His wingspan is a major asset for him.Quote:

Playing around with the class calculator, if we finish with the 7 we're supposed to finish with (Harmon, Price, Cooper, Anderson, Perkins, Johnson, and Boone/OL with similar ranking), we'll finish with a composite score of around 218. If you apply that to the last 4 years and get an average, it'll put us around 27th. Not fantastic, but certainly acceptable with it being this staff's first year in the SEC. The knock on them was that they wouldn't be able to recruit, and so far, that's simply just not true.
However, if we want to actually start taking steps forward as a program, we need to move forward with the goal in mind of having top 25 classes year in and year out. That's not totally unrealistic. That's essentially 1-2 more 4 star players and 1-2 less low-3 star players. Looking back over the last 4 years, the 25th ranked class averaged around 226. So that number and up should be our target next year, with a strong in-state class seemingly on the way.

27 is solid imo. I'll be pretty happy if leach pulls that off bc I expected more 35-40 with his recruiting reputation.Quote:
