What would that be? Zero recruits rated by Rivals as under 5.4, or just one point below a 3-star recruit. Excluding kickers, who are always rated poorly, we had two such recruits in the 2014 class and nine in 2013.
Granted there may be some grade creep in Rivals' ratings but a review of the ratings for other MWC schools suggest it's modest at best. AFA has five but the ratings of their recruits really don't count and UNLV and UNM haven't gotten enough verbals to bother with. SJSU, Wyoming, CSU and Nevada all have verbals from three kids rated below 5.4 and USU and Hawaii have two. So really only Fresno and Boise can be said to be recruiting the type of depth we are.
SJSU has the highest rated class right now but that was true a year ago at this time and several of their key recruits decommitted in January and they finished third behind us and Boise. SJSU is also a bit of a special case because Caragher managed to bring in a young stud recruiting coordinator and writing's on the wall they won't be able to keep him much longer. Although the same could be true of us and Tony White, Jeff Horton is turning into a very good recruiter in his own right.
