Mich St has a good class. I really like the QB they landed and Vansumeran who was coveted by a lot of high-profile teams. Mangham though I absolutely love. A couple of others I've looked at could really blow up to be above average players IMO.
But the SEC, as usual, owns about 50 percent of the recruiting real estate in the Top 25.
Alabama really stocked up on WRs and cherry-picked just about every position. As did Georgia and OSU.
Tuck does kill on the portal too.
I think NIL contracts are only going to grow the value of brands like Alabama and the, even over programs led by master recruiters, like Georgia.
Georgia really does a great job of recruiting. Kirby was one of Nicky's best when it came to that.
But Nicky, with all of the 5 star and 4 star recruits he gets, always seems to come up with that one, or two, guys that are listed on the lower end of his recruiting class that blows up into a starter. Last year he got a kid named Jaeden Roberts who could blow up. And also, Anquin Barnes could be another. Or Khyree Jackson the last guy on the RIVALS list.
Of course Bama's lower ranked guys would be probable starters on half the D1 schools in the country.
