That’s how you end up with 70 scholarship players. Would you rather have 3 stars or walk ons as your depth? How can you say we have a great staff then turnaround and knock the guys THEY offer so you trust rivals anaylsis of players or mark Richts anaylisis of player better. Based if you think we have best staff in county i would hope you would trust the staff evaluation of players over a paid site with an agenda.
Do Smith and Wilson have commitable offers?
The only staff member I trust to find underrated gems is Coach Kool, and that's because he's earned that respect after years upon years of churning out high draft picks at Missouri. You won't see me complain if we take a 3* DT that Kool really likes. The rest of the staff are great talent developers, great coaches, and great recruiters. But I'm going to question them if they take 3 stars.
You won't fall below 70 if you actually land some of the kids you target.
Stop being a star-*****. Take a few minutes out of your day to watch Keidron Smith's film and tell us what you see that makes you believe they aren't going to succeed in college instead of lazily reviewing 24/7 composite rankings and arguing 5* > 4* > 3*. Those sites don't know everything.
Is Jobe a better DB recruit than Smith or Wilson, probably yes. But that's not the question. The question is whether Smith or Wilson are Miami-caliber, top-level, p5 recruits in their own right. To my eyes, the answer is clearly yes (regardless of stars).
