Bud Elliot:
Entering 2019, 16 teams meet the Blue-Chip Ratio mark.
Ohio State 81%
Alabama 80%
Georgia 79%
LSU 64%
Florida State 61%
Clemson 60%
USC 60%
Penn State 60%
Michigan 60%
Texas 60%
Oklahoma 60%
Auburn 58%
Washington 54%
Notre Dame 54%
Florida 53%
Miami 51%
None of these teams is a surprise.
If you were asked to name the top 20 programs in college football, you would have most or all of these teams on the list. And every team on this list has won a title in the last 40 years.
The SEC has the most BCR teams (five), followed by the ACC and Big Ten (three each), Big 12 (two), and Pac-12 (two). Notre Dame also made it. Due to the number of teams meeting the threshold this year, this looks much more balanced between the conferences than previous seasons.”
“Washington, Florida, and Miami are new to the Blue-Chip Ratio club this year.
And each team arrived in a slightly different way.
Chris Petersen has slowly built Washington from a 22% BCR in 2014 to 23, 26, 30, 40, and finally 54 this year.
Florida was last a member of the club in 2014, dropped out for four seasons, and is back thanks to a strong 2019 class.
Miami’s 2019 class was not great by any measure, but having the destitute 2015 class drop off is enough to boost the Hurricanes’ four-year average over the mark.”
“Here are the biggest risers and fallers in the Ratio since 2018:
Up: Washington (14%), Florida (11%), Georgia (10%), Oklahoma (7%), Penn State (7%)
Petersen’s Huskies are this year’s best example of how winning games can turn into better recruits.
Down: UCLA (-13%), USC (-11%), Florida State (-6%)“
Look at the beautiful @PurpleThrobber growing bigger and bigger each year!

We should have one more huge jump next year before it starts leveling off.

We really haven't beaten anyone. Good lord.

Why even play the games?

4 Blue Chip Seniors graduate after the season.UWhuskytskeet said:We should have one more huge jump next year before it starts leveling off.
Handful of guys may go pro: Skinny, Hunter, Levi, Keith.
Likely getting 10-12 more Blue Chips this class.
Interestingly enough there is another jump coming in a few years as there are only 2 Blue Chip Sophomores.

Pete was attempting to punch well above his weight class in the NY6 Bowels, and unfortunately it wasn't happening. Yet the Dawgs never got boat raced.
Next season he is going to have DOUBLE the Blue Chip talent he had in those years, and now there will be Blue Chips filling the full 2 deep.
It isn’t microwave popcorn Derek. -
We're due for another level up but multiple conference championships and the destruction of the infernal Harbaugh Shaw Stanford apathy machine.DerekJohnson said:We really haven't beaten anyone. Good lord.
