GITT if your Team has the best recruiting class in your Conference

[UCFhonors]

As most of you know, I know that recruiting rankings are just as much bullshit as preseason rankings and polls are. But it's good to see UCFs Domination continue. #1 in the AAC. #AACPow6r

OSU isn't even top 2. And who lands as the B10's best class depends on Nick Cross sticks with FSU or goes to PSU. If he goes to PSU, then PSU's class jumps ours. If he doesn't, then we stay on top.

Nobody cares about some classes loaded with 3*. OSU's is clearly the highest quality.

To be honest I didn't even remember them ever playing.

Did you just become a UGA tshirt bandwagoner?

Real UCFans like me remember every single Bowl Game.

since that was your first bowl win, I can understand that sentiment

Come back when UCF has been in 54 bowls (47 that I have been alive to see) and tell me you then remember each and every one. That is assuming you are still alive then

Ehh no tOSU's average rating per player is behind Alabama and UGA currently.

This thread is about best in conference.

Well that makes more sense in that context. To me it is a tossup between Michigan and tOSU. Michigan has 16 4 and 5 stars and tOSU 12 so far. tOSU has 1 more 5 star. You can toss the 3 stars out in that comparison and see Michigan is slightly ahead overall just in the quality in this years class. tOSU has more talent on their roster already though so that slight gain might not mean much.

EDIT: I missed Penn State they have 18 4 and 5 stars but just 1 5 star. They have a lot of quality in their class overall in comparison to B1G teams though.

It's very tight right now, but the difference is PSU and michigan had room to bring in full classes while we didn't. If we had the room, we'd be head and shoulders above them. Still ahead from a quality standpoint, which is what matters.

Those 2 have bigger bags for the bagmen. Cant compete with that much money.

Current averages:

tOSU - 92.28
PSU - 91.01
MI - 90.78

The other 2 just have bigger classes this year.

I removed the 3 stars in the comparison. If you just take what you presume as quality both PSU and Michigan have slightly more than tOSU this year in 4 and 5 star players. It's not a big difference for all 3. If you go by players who will likely contribute the most to the program in the 3 classes they are very equal with tOSU coming in slightly behind both. Again though tOSU already has more talent on the roster than those 2 programs so it shouldn't have a huge impact.

This is all that really matters.

I went by average and the numbers on 247.

Just because you have a high average by signing fewer players it doesn't mean you got a better quality class. If you cut Michigan and PSU's classes down to the same size as tOSU's they still have equal or better quality.

tOSU's class- 3 5* 9 4* 4 3*

Cutting the other 2 classes down to 16

Michigan 2 5* 14 4*
PSU 1 5* 15 4*

See what happened there ? If Michigan and PSU were just rated off their Top 16 players they would have a higher rating than tOSU.

You keep saying this without acknowledging the fact that OSU literally couldn't fill the open spots it had in this class. I'll take a 3 star kid over an empty scholarship spot, likely handed out to a walk-on this year, any day.

And if you compare our top 16 players to OSU's 16 players, our class still ranks higher.
