Lol at bitchfork.

I guess ASU and OSU have more in common then I thought.

Impossible. This article was published well after the release of the last TSIO pod.

Regardless of the merits of FPI, this is pretty strong evidence showing how well this staff is doing. Facts are facts.

AlCzervik

Cal too high.

Hard to believe OSU could underperform its talent level more than ASU and UCLA when it's talent level is so low to begin with.

RaceBannon

Where is Hillary ranked?

NorwegianHusky

UCLA fucking sucks, the sky is blue, our politicians are illuminati mole people. More news at 11.

TOO HIGH

This list is bullshit. OSU should have been top 50 just based on how little talent they have.

Good chit.

Weird considering ucla had an equally bad season but has like twice the talent level of us.

That chart considers the last two seasons. UCLA was ranked about 20 spots higher than ASU in both years.

Just looking at Rivals rankings (because they are handy), Arizona State had a four year stars per recruit average of just about 3.0 during that timeframe, while UCLA was just shy of 3.6.

It is not difficult if you work at it at all. Mack Brown stopped working hard at recruiting in about 2006 or 2007. He still got highly ranked classes, but they were soft, poorly balanced and overrated.

Strong had one really good class and one okay class.

Herman is absolutely killing it in recruiting right now. He is selling hope and change. If the team shits the bed this fall, the 2019 cycle is going to be more challenging.
