Utu is elite. He liked Oregon. That makes a bit more sense.Overall, it appears that On3 and 247 like this class a lot…the idiots at Rivals and ESPN aren’t as high on it, but who gives a s*** what they think…
On an aside, it’s sour grapes, but it would have been a truly elite class if we held on to Utu and Hayward….oh well
Is this Blue Chip Ratio calculated using the HS recruits signed over the past 5 years?
and.. have the HS recruits that left a team been removed from the calculation?
and.. have the portal recruits signed been added using their HS ratings to the calculation?
We have seen that how bad it would be to use a portal player's HS rating to project their worth to a new team. Many teams depend a lot more on portal players vs HS players now to finish their teams.
BCR for a team is much less important now than it was before the Portal and NIL.
SCHOOL | BCR WITH TRANSFERS |
---|---|
Ohio State | 86% |
Alabama | 82% |
Georgia | 77% |
Oregon | 71% |
Texas | 70% |
LSU | 66% |
Clemson | 64% |
Oklahoma | 63% |
Notre Dame | 63% |
Texas A&M | 63% |
Florida | 58% |
Penn State | 57% |
Miami | 56% |
USC | 54% |
Michigan | 54% |
Florida State | 53% |
So by this metric, we’ve overachieved significantly the past few years. Which tells me that if our recruiting continues to trend up, we should be in good shape. It’s going to take longer than some of us might like to be a true contender, but Heupel is slowly building this thing — a trajectory more similar to Harbaugh than Saban or Meyer.BCR with added transfers for 2024 below using their portal ranking, not HS ranking. Not sure if they subtract the talent that left.

This, and the blue-chip ratio is getting better with every single class.So by this metric, we’ve overachieved significantly the past few years.

everyone just gets lost wanting instant gratification. They see the end result from whatever school they think we should be like, and just ignore the work.So by this metric, we’ve overachieved significantly the past few years.

They were just trying to make themselves feel better.The ones who say that don’t know what they are talking about.
Especially as NIL seems to have leveled the playing field a little bit at the top of the highschool class rankings. Our BCC rising while the money's getting spread around is a good sign, even if it's still subtle.Now that is the trend you want to see.
Consistently bring in classes in the 70% range and we will have the roster to compete with anyone - on any field.
