What is it with these former Alabama assistants? Mario Cristobal

What do they know about recruiting that the rest of us don't?

Perhaps Oregon's recruiting class will "normalize or regress to the mean" by signing day, but this seems odd.

55K seat stadium in the NW with not much championship tradition, & very little in-state talent pool. Sure, they were great under Chip Kelly & have Nike but they have never recruited close to what they are doing now & they haven't even been very good lately.

They currently have the #5 recruiting class.

Here are their past recruiting classes:

2018 - 13
2017 - 19
2016 - 27
2015 - 16
2014 - 21
2013 - 19
2012 - 14
2011 - 12
