We finish last in the SECW, and then Moorhead says there is a correlation between recruiting rankings and success. Guess we shouldn't have a lot of high hopes for the future.

We did finish last BUT 5-7 is debatable and we can beat all but #1 if Schrader is the real deal.Quote:

So we can drop a couple of our lower ranked guys to increase our average too? Don't think it works that way.Quote:

We are better at OL, Qb, RB, DL
They recruited better at DB and WR ... Even though I like what we did with our backend..
Like IYOK said look at all factors in recruiting.. position players, number of players at one position, number of recruits in a class, ect....
I will take our class over both Arky and OM ..
Don’t waste your time .. I already broke this down..Quote:

Is our class better or worse with dj james? He'd pull down our avg per recruit.Quote:

I see where you're coming from though.Quote:

We are bitching over someone else's recruiting class being ranked a tenth or two higher than us and forget that we mopped the floor with both of them in the real world. I promise you Ark and OM would trade situations with us right now in a heartbeat.
The difference in the 25th ranked class and the 15th is nothing. I would take ours over any of them and I bet we beat OM and Arkansas like a drum again next year. You should all drink a beer or something, if you get this way over recruiting I'd hate to see how you handle real adversity.
Take IYOK's advice and only show up on signing day to bitch about ridiculous shit if you're going to bitch, a year of this is gonna be unbearable. This is the recruiting thread not the whiny bitch thread
Nothing like someone crying over someone else crying...Quote:
