I guess you missed all the matches and overlooked how they completely refute your opinion.
This is hardly a new topic for me, I said the same thing during the Bronco regime

That thread has plenty of links to data from scout/247/rivals
I have been a BYU recruiting aficionado since the days of mail order recruiting lists in the 80's.
I don't disagree that recruiting in the 2* group is very important, we are going to have more 2* recruits than blue chippers for a long time, but if you want BYU to get to the next level, we need to get a much higher % of the blue chippers that are starting at other universities i.e. USC that will have 4 of them, 2 of which are still to my knowledge very active LDS and are exactly the kind of kids that BYU should have a recruiting advantage with. Those 4 all contributed from their Fr. year @ USC and will likely start 3+ years and have legit NFL looks, which is why they were 4/5* kids when they came out of HS.
