I don't think people are just saying recruiting # equal success but elite talent + elite coaching = National Championships. That's what been proven not opinion. You can have elite recruiting + mediocre coaching & still win games. You can also have mediocre recruiting + elite coaching & still win games. To win it all up until this point you have needed elite recruiting + elite coaching. Also those schools with elite recruiting tend to have the highest # of kids drafted. So it's not just HS recruiting guys who think those guys are elite kids.
