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.
I think your analysis is spot on.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.
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.Perhaps portal recruiting should be included in recruiting rankings? Just a thought.
Money. The big time DT’s are killing it with NIL.Elite Interior d line recruiting still escapes us. Not sure what can be done about it, but it’s been a problem for years.
