If we land Elam, MAR, and Moore our class could rise as high as 7th (on both Rivals & 247). If we get 2 of the 3 we still end up inside the top 10 (w/ 10th being the lowest). As late as mid-November it appeared the best case for this class was 12th - and that was being generous. We all know we need to get better classes, but after the way this all started I hope 90+% of us are happy w/ this finish. Sure, we can piss and moan about no 5-stars (although Steele is pretty dang close), no true Safety, and "only" 2 heavy-DL's. But we could probably nitpick most classes at other schools as well.
If we get the three mentioned above, our 247 ranking will be: 277.43, 7th ranked (277 would be our highest point total since 2012). Pretty impressive. And our 2020 class is on pace to easily finish top-5.
