This makes no sense to me. If manuela managed to close #11 classes I expect top 10 for a x3 better recruiter in Mario for his bump class, with no class limit, easily af. I mean you don’t even think he’ll jump more than 3 spots from a class he salvaged when he literally had no staff?
the ONLY reason Manuela was able to get #11 was due to the pandemic. Even Chase Smith said out of his own mouth that he wouldn't have picked Miami if he was able to do more visits etc.
I think he just means in general. Miami only has 9 commits… Pop, of course we ain’t done yet.
That's the overall ranking which includes transfers
He hasn't set a date. He rarely does interview and his uncle said he is tired of the process. I have a sneaky suspiscion he announces this week.
The new formulas mitigate the advantage of taking a ton of kids. The 2012 class which was #10 and was crazy top heavy would not have been ranked as high.
I expect a top 7 class but the gap between the haves and have nots is increasing this year because of NIL which is ironic. Usually in a year, only a couple teams reach 300 or so points. Last year 4 teams reached that mark. We have a shot at teaching 300 and probably don’t end up with a top 5 class. Basically, ranking matters but to truly value the talent look at the points.
Facts. People need to throw that 2021 class out the **** window. The biggest recruiting outlier ever seen.
The new formulas have fixed that issue. The more players you get the lower points each one adds.
Really?
Yeah, play with the 247 class calculator. Check how many points a player like Jalen brown gets you when there are 13 guys committed vs 26. As they list them it will tell you how many he is worth but that’s not what gets added all the time.
We also had momentum with D'eriq as a "dark-horse Heisman contender".
Positive post at any rate.
While Manny gets no credit for the actual recruitment of the class and I am definitely not shootin that guy any bail money, but if we didnt have that class, this would be a major rebuild for Mario. So however you want to view Manny...that 2021 class is the reason we have some hope that this could be just a one year fix for Mario.
