Does PSU have a chance to finish in top 10 recruiting?

That would be 2 years in a row and the first time for Franklin. A top ten ranking plus a win at the Rose Bowl and PSU would look a lot better to future recruits.

Doesn't seem like it to me. Math looks like it would require at least 1 or 2 high 4 star players added that would bring average player rating upward. Seems like the DB Harris is the only one that almost fits that category somewhat.....

Very good class, , especially at DB and LB, but the holes are 1 tech DT and WR...... Top rated olinemen as well, but a little short at OT.

I think your analysis is spot on.

Short answer is no
The long answer is yes but to much would have to happen that isn’t realistic at this point.
Doesn’t matter, it’s a good solid class with several difference maker’s in it.
Weak at OT again and WR

Perhaps portal recruiting should be included in recruiting rankings? Just a thought.
the reality of the game now is that transfers are playing a big role for teams. the also explains why teams that may recruit well from HS and lose players are under performing their past rankings.

I agree with previous post that if we are meeting needs that is the key. 1 Tech DT is probably the area we have not been getting for a few classes. The last 2 true 1 tech DT were Cole Brevard (he is at Purdue now) and Caleb Artis (RS FR for 2023). There are some 3 Tech being converted, so this is an area of need.

OT and WR may be a little off, but we have a lot of guys and may be able to cover those. 1 Tech DT miss means we play packages with all 3 tech DTs and maybe go big on DE to compensate. that looked like one of Manny's sub packages this year actually.

Elite Interior d line recruiting still escapes us. Not sure what can be done about it, but it’s been a problem for years.
