Exactly: There's a reason we lose to the Northern Illinois, UMass, etc. of the world. (Recruiting in the 70ish range.)

Some of the teams ahead of BYU in the 2019 recruiting rankings:

Only two P5s are worse. Not good.

Following recruiting is lame. I didn't follow recruiting until around 2014, and

If you can’t recruit you better know how to coach

Don’t believe in ‘stars’ because Kalani’s strength is recruiting ❗️😥

He sees things no other coach does, it's the "measurables"

If you can coach em up measurables are the way to go

Not if you look at average ranking of recruits
BYU '80

Even so, I don't think that's going to make a huge difference
Indy Coug

Puts them above most of those teams but not great by the numbers
BYU '80

Big factor in rankings is the number of commits.

Yes but even by average star it's not a good class.
kooogar
2/6/19 5:19pm
It's a decent class. Player-makers at QB, WR, and LB

Being light on the d line is because Alatini didn’t sign

Agreed. But, we didn't replace him with anyone comparable.
boscatar

Looking at average player ranking puts us behind every P5
Blue Cat

This is actually a decent recruiting class, except for RB.
boscatar
2/6/19 9:47am
Are these grades based on the boscatar rating scale?
LumberCoug

Based on 247Sports player ratings, with Boscatar/pro-BYU bias

I’m cool w that!

Our recruiting pool is smaller because we are an LDS school.

I don't fully subscribe to the rankings as cold hard fact. But yes, this is

There is a good reason why top 10 teams almost always have top 10 recruiting

And whining constantly about it doesn't help either. BYU has generally been in

You again... I didn't see good results I saw typical avg results. Just because

According to Rivals, BYU has zero 4*; Four 3*, Fifteen 2* & two 0*. Ouch

I find myself yet again wondering why you spend your time here talking trash.
DraperCoug22
2/6/19 3:21pm
It's not really trash talk. He's pointing out a fact.
Scott_Tenorman

It's absolutely trash talk
boscatar
2/6/19 5:13pm
Coming to the rival's forum & pointing out how bad they are isn't trash-talking?

We are a religious school with strict recruiting limitations.

KS’ strength is recruiting tho. How can you call yourself a fan?

I never liked the recruit rankings. We've had two 5* QB's and neither kept

How do you account for Bama & Clemson at the top of recruiting rankings every

Point he was making that was obviously lost on you ...

I agree with his point (mostly). Maybe you can answer my question.
ALUF 1990

I guess you missed this.

Nick Saban and Dabo Swinney are elite coaches.

Same way you account for Texas and USC

Recruiting rankings are pretty good indicator if you look at the big picture
