[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 722726, member: 2299"] Literally not what was said. What was said was that increasing the size of a class can't make it worse. It's why it makes sense to look at the top of a class when evaluating. In any case, since you don't like 247 look at espn. We'll look at the top 15 so that we don't include that pesky kicker you have a problem with. 2020 - average 78.9, 3 espn top 300 recruits. All 15 ranked 77 or better (actually 16 in total), 7 of them 79 or better. 2010 - average 77.4 - no espn top 300 recruits. 11 ranked 77 or better. 4 ranked 79 or better. The average is a point and a half different, and there is more top end talent. We always had more room under Johnson. One of the longest held complaints was that he didn't recruit to cover the inevitable attrition. Last year we had a coach who did recruit to cover that attrition, Also, you keep adding mythical players to the 2010 class to make your argument. At that point you're no longer arguing for 2010 being as good as 2020, because you literally have to change the 2010 class to compare. Also, the late additions to the 2010 class were some of our lowest ones (4 of the 5 lowest rated were after the new year) and only had one addition that was 5.6 (Smelter was a baseball recruit originally) in Young, so your characterization that the only reason we weren't landing more 5.6 guys is because of class space is suspicious at best.
