So basically we aren't much better than 50% on these guys panning out. We've had some great ones and total busts. Averaging only 29 a class, I would like to know how many rex requires to be happy

We go over this every year. Yes something like 45% of five stars go to the NFL. And then it's like 25% of four stars 10% of three stars and 2% of everybody else. It's remarkable that almost half of five stars pan out.

It would be interesting to see if there are any programs that consistently beat those metrics with the players they recruit and develop.

Does anyone really care about rex being happy? I don't.

I don't know that we even have any 5*s on our radar do we? This would be an odd year if we don't.

You guys are being tough on TRex. He's been great most of the season. I think he started having some WM flashbacks the last month of the season, so he just needs a dose of offense and he'll be back on the bandwagon.

We're in the mix for a couple, but even if we don't get them I feel like this will be a solid class. Maybe not spectacular, but solid. Offense and special teams are what's killing us and those appear to have been addressed.

And depth everywhere. We need it. Haven't we had like the lowest scholly #s of all the D1 schools for like a decade now?

NCM, Ben Davis, Demetris Robinson, and Lyndell Wilskn are the only ones I know that they have been working hard on.

But if you go down the uncommitted 5*s UF appears to be in the conversation on most of them. Things will work out darlings.

About half the 5 stars are uncommitted. Particularly the ones we're targeting. That's why.

From what I hear Willie Williams is currently enjoying his 5 star penitentiary.
