[QUOTE="Techster, post: 925816, member: 360"] Depends on how you want to interpret it. One way of looking at it, and this is how I like to look at it, is whether coaches are "punching above their weight". Let's agree it's difficult to be in a non-Power 5 conference and get a high ranked OFEI without doing something special. There are around 65ish Power 5 schools (I'll include Notre Dame and BYU since they play by the same economics as P5 schools)...and those schools should dominate OFEI rankings under your thought. So for a non-P5 school to break into the top 65 OFEI territory (the number of P5 schools) in FEI, they have to be punching above their G5 weight, correct? If you get into the 40 or better OFEI territory (that's better than 1/3rd of the P5 schools) as a non P5 school that's pretty special. If you're a non P5 coordinator ranked in the top 20 of FEI, that's an extraordinary accomplishment given the disparity of economics and difficulty of achieving that outside of the P5. Coaches who do this are most definitely punching above their weight and getting more out of their recruiting tier. The other side of that is if you're a P5 school who finished below 65-70ish, you're probably not maximizing your talent. Each person probably has different metrics on what they want to see from a candidate. OFEI is far from perfect, but it at least normalizes the data better than any other metric available right now.
