Rivals Team Recruiting Rankings Released.

UT comes in at #22 behind Vanderbilt and Ole Miss.

 

Rivals, much like US News and World Report, obviously has a strong bias against UT.

 

That or it's May 31 and Signing Day is more than 8 months away.

 

Why is that?

 

I really don't care until about November and by then, we'll probably be talking about HC candidates

 

generally i'd agree, but an awful lot of the top guys are already commited. and there is definetely something to be said for recruiting momentum.

 

Agree, these recruits change their mind a lot before signing day anyway. I'm more concerned about Hart's recruiting than Dooley's.

 

Kind of difficult to build relationships when 7 coaches jump ship.

 

Negavol.

The coaching turnover is all part of the process..........

 

Meh

 

Someone on VQ actually said this. Said that this is all Dooley's plan. Sad.

 

Cal lost a coach who literally brought in 1 or 2 5 stars a year and half a dozen high 4 stars and people on the cal board are seriously arguing that his journeyman replacement is a "huge upgrade." I wish i could be this delusional.

 

The consensus on toos is recruiting will blow up with a great 8 or 9 win season.


LOL

 

I have no reason to believe Dooley will have much momentum going

 

Not a big deal yet. Whether Dooley stays or goes, we will climb up the rankings later on in the process like usual.

 

problem with that logic is that you have to be on the recruits radar well before that. oregon went to the national championship game and still couldn't manage better than the 10th ranked recruiting class.

 

I would say to please tell me you are kidding, but by this point I know you aren't.

It's definitely a plan that never been used before if it is.

 

How much different are the initial rankings from what they've been in the past? If memory serves correctly we've been around the same if not further down.

 

Yeah, even when we had top five classes we were usually in this area.

 

Some of those guys are blind....spoiled with success of the 90's. I am beginning to wonder if there is a plan.
