    We're going to have aggregate class ranks lower than 2 in a lot of years. No wonder CCP is burning this fucker to the ground...the house he's burning was in reality only a shitty studio apartment with a couple new appliances.

    It's amazing how many of these guys I don't even remember their names ...

    Also amazing how many of these guys literally never saw the field.

    I actually went back, started over, and changed my methodology after completing the 2nd page (Class of 2010) to better differentiate between the lowest tier. I probably over inflated some of the values of some of the players, but I think you can make a case for some minor contributors over others.

    I wouldn't be surprised if I have one of the highest point totals of the voters as a result.

    I honestly tried my hardest to keep a consistent methodology, was this guy worth the offer of a pac-12 scholarship, however the wordage of "contribution to UW" really had me ranking guys differently. Sample and Ducre suffered in my rankings, although deep down in my plums I knew they had "it".

    Whatever, i might get waterboreded with Pepsi by CGTP for giving up too much of my criteria before the results so i'll shut up now.

    That excerise was beyond depressing.

    My lord...but why is the greatness of Sarks recruiting a myth?

    Ducre should've been an all Pac-12 player in his RS-Sr. year. It's just that Sark was about as good at roster management as I am at money management when I'm drunk, out with friends at a bar and we are all trying to impress the hot waitress... which is most likely the same state Sark was in while he was managing the roster.

    I had a harder time than I expected to since I've done this before. My previous scale was different though and didn't include a zero category. I ended up struggling on just a few guys, but still don't know that I ranked them correctly. I can't remember all of them right now, but the ones in my mind are James Johnson and Kasen Williams. There were a couple of others.

    There were a fair number where I couldn't remember if they had ever played or not. The dilemma was whether to rank them 0 or 1 which isn't a real big dilemma.

    So when are the powers going to cough up some results of this thing?

    Waiting on 7 more people to do the survey. I will call them out this evening if they have not completed it and make them open for public ridicule until they do.

    Shit was easy. If I didn't even recognize the name, zero. If I recognized the name, but they hardly ever played or transferred, zero. That took care of over half the list. Easy.

    In related news, Sark sucks.

    I tried not to think about each rating too much.. Second guessing can lead to overrating some players I feel. Tons of 0s and 1s.. Lots of names I had forgotten about..

    Lots of zeros and ones and I gave a point more to some who weren't great but at least played quite a bit and way to many who the hell is that names.

    It's interesting how many people fawn over recruiting each year and doing an exercise such as this reminds us how few of these players make a difference in each program(regardless of * rating). It's almost incredibly sad how many of these guys wash out without doing anything.

    As a side note, would be interested after this is done to see how many of these guys graduated. Hopefully after getting 0's and 1's they at least got a degree out of it
