True, but even under those circumstances, you can't award more than 25 scholarships in a single class.

5 years later your best recruits are entering their 2nd year in the League

Texas just got #21 in Reggie Wilson. The d-line is going to be sick. Oh yeah, Stoops did offer.

I'm starting to like our chances with D White, Seastrunk, Jeffcoat, and the LB from Ohio, if Texas closes out with those 4 you can pencil us in as the #1 class.

Rumor is that Texas will get two more commitments by their spring game.

I'm calling BS, he has an offer from Iowa and your telling me he chose to play for Oklahoma over the Hawkeyes. Obviously he is an idiot.

Nice pickup, kid is huge and has some nice offers from LSU UNC Nebraska, and ND. Rivals lists him as their #25 overall prospect. Sucks for Nebraska when they miss out on a top notch kid from near by. Bell should help with keeping Cobbs in state.

Out of the top Texas kids still left, Oklahoma has it's best shot of getting Jeffcoat and Cory Nelson. I have read that Oklahoma might have backed off on Nelson but from what I understand he is theirs for the taking.

Don't really care one way or the other on the rest. Sometimes because of transfers, injuries, and jr's leaving early there are more than 25 'ships available.

Honestly, recruiting classes should not be graded until five years later. Then you can see how many MNCs, Conference titles, AAs, etc.

I disagree, that is as much or more about the development of those players that were brought into the system and program than about the talent they had coming into college.

Congrats to OU on Blake Bell, I thought we may have a real shot if we could've gotten him up for the Spring-game.

I do believe Rivals adjust their ranks later in the year and adjusts for non-qualifiers.

They say they do but they also say they are objective in their rankings, and that is complete BS. I've heard several stories where kids were dropped in their ranking because they were early commitments to a school. One of the things I hate about Geoff Ketchem of Orangebloods is his BS when it comes to moving kids up and down based on their interest in Texas. It's one of the many reasons he will never get another nickle from me.
