wow. What is BYU's average recruiting ranking? 78 seems lowish.
BYUs recruiting ranking is low, and it is legitimate for now. It's for a couple of reasons"
1) We are seeing a shift in recruiting philosophy. Bronco would wrap up his recruiting early and not wait for higher profile guys to decide at the end of the recruiting season. Kalani is waiting. However, we have a good shot at guys like Ah You, Tuifua, Tofa, Watson, and Hola. We get these guys and our ranking will improve. Right now, most of our commits are 2* on Scout. That's in line with #78.
2) We are getting a lot of transfers. This is still recruiting, to some extent, and builds talent on our roster, but it is not reflected in our recruiting rankings. It feels as if there is a reset going on with guys currently on missions that now want to come to BYU after their missions. This happens every year, but seems to be happening more now with a new coach. I doubt we continue to see these numbers after the next year or two.Statistics: Posted by cscoug — Thu Jan 12, 2017 3:31 pm
