I don't know where you got that list. I'm sure they're based on Grillz ratings.
But 2010 was our best recruiting class to date, certainly not third from worst.
He got that list from Rivals.
and he is right. You have to remember Rivals ranks classes based on TOTAL points, so teams with more signed recruits have higher numbers. If you look at the AVG stars per class, (which is still stupid because it is all opinion based) I think it is a better indicator of class rank. It is always about Quality over Quantity.
I know you aren't good with the numbers but Prowler's statistic is dead on.
