It seems like our 2023 class is filling out early relative to the classes of the previous few years… and it seems like the majority of our current 2023 commits have little to no P5 offers… or offers from P5s that are significantly worse than us in football.
Why is this happening? Is NIL forcing us out of the running for higher profile recruits, resulting in the staff focusing on diamonds in the rough (better overall recruits than when we used to have this strategy, but diamonds in the rough compared to the recruits we have been getting the last few years).
Yes, these guys are three star recruits (some even high three stars)… but most of their offers are from no name programs. I mean, most of the offers for the most recent commit aren’t even D1.
I fully trust this staff to find the right guys… I just wonder why the apparent shift in strategy?
