I came across it and shared it... you know it’s good pub whether they are the foremost experts or not. Oh, and we’re #20 on 247 so does that make you happy or is that too high for you too?
No because 247 is the go to for recruiting. ESPN's Recruiting is like a Walmart Minute Steak it tastes ok and its good to chew on for a little bit but in the end it's not a Fareway Porterhouse cooked to perfection like 247 is.

I agree 247 is superior and respect your choice to only consume porterhouse. While my preference is for porterhouse as well, the rest of the world consumes a lot of minute steak so thought it might interest other CFs to know some relevant info about our program.

I was looking through old classes because I was wondering how this one was so highly rated compared to the great recruiting of the past. This class is ranked 21st.

2012 Georges, Naz, SDW and Okoro was ranked 39th.
2013 Monte, Iceman and Hogue was ranked 40th.

2013 appears to be lower because of Hogue unrated so basically just 2 man class (what a class though). 2012 isn't all that different than this year, yet we are 18 places better:

60, 149, 288, 360
71, 166, 274, 319

For the record, I think some of our guys still get a boost.

I think Dubar is a really good candidate for a boost.
