I'd say talent differential matters, and I'd argue that even though Toledo consistently finishes with the #1 class, the degree of difference in talent level between Toledo at #1 and some MAC team at #6 in the recruiting rankings is not that different. There'll be a bigger talent differential here.

I just looked at 2021 using 247 numbers:

Toledo finished with the #1 ranked recruiting class. 82.5 player average. 163.18 total points.
Ball State finished with the #6 ranked recruiting class. 81.00 player average 140.84 total points.

Miami finished #2 in the ACC. 90.51 player average. 266.08 total points.
Virginia finished #6 in the ACC. 86.03 player average. 206.33 total points.

Even though he was hauling in the "best" recruiting classes at Toledo, they were pretety indistinguishable from the median recruiting class in the conference. The fall off is much bigger in the ACC. We outrecruit the **** out of the median recruiting class in the conference. We have a much more talented roster than our coastal competitors whereas Candle had a slightly more talented roster than most of his MAC competitors.
Good post. I like data.

I mean.... If tomorrow is first day of workouts.... Wouldn't that be the perfect time to introduce the team to the OC and DC??? (Trust me, I know I'm reaching 😆)
 
I guess people want Nick Saban as OC lol

This dude helped develop Kareem Hunt and Diontae Johnson. Better pros than anything we have put out on the offensive side of the ball in 2 decades.
Only way I would want Nick Saban as OC is if the only other options were Dan Enos or Kirby Smart.

At least after all this starts coming out between now and tomorrow morning, this will most fast. Either done deal, or he's crossed off the list.

With that being said...bring him to me.
 
I'll say this - based on the comments I've read from Toledo fans, they would be fairly indifferent about him moving on

Yea this is a really good one from what I'm reading.....Mario's going x and O with O and D....he knows he just has to model Saban and Kirby.....just staff full out elite recruiters and he closes and dynasty here we come.
He took a lot of clues from Chip Kelly from what I remember

Lots of spread and tempo

He’s had a great reputation for years. I remember an older interview with Matt Rhule where he mentioned studying him when wanting to learn how to defend against “the best”

I know it’s tough when you are at Toledo…but he was also around Matt Campbell fwiw (I think)

In 2016, Toledo ranked in the top 10 nationally in passing efficiency, third-down conversions, total offense, and passing offense. The Rockets set a school record with an average of 517.8 yards per game.

They led the MAC in total offense the following season and surpassed 50 points a school-record six times in 2018, armed with the top scoring offense in the MAC.

Toledo ranked 26th in scoring offense and 37th in total offense last season.
