AuburnNTexas 7,140 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 While you never know who will truly be an impact player lets look at number of 4 * & 5* players per team. USC 21 Bama 19 Auburn 18 Tenn 17 FSU 15 Texas 15 OSU 14 OK 14 ND 13 Ga 12 Clem 12 LSU 12 Tex A&M 12 UCLA 12 Penn St 11 Just like last year one of our 5* players was a Juco so didn't get any bonus points. Last year a Receiver and this year a RB with Bonus points we would have moved up in rankings. There is more to recruiting then just stars. Ga has a good class based on stars and points but are extremely heavy in DB's & D-Line without much at LB, RB and no QB did they fill all their needs. Auburns class besides being very strong also was very well balanced and addresses areas of high need, pass rushers, linebacker and DB's on Defense, On offense we got a lot of depth in OL, two great RB's Great WR's and two different types of QB's. Just based on numbers of 4 & 5 stars we are near the top with exception of USC which had a monster class. I couldn't have asked for a better class. This may be the best class we ever had especially in the way it addressed our needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReidMcLain 75 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I also noticed that about Georgia's Class. 7 Corners and 6 DE's make up half their class, no balance at all. Auburn had a good amount of depth across all the offense and defense in this class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WDE_OxPx_2010 5,295 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Georgia didn't exactly need RBs, but their lack of a QB grab was curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCBAuburnaFan 1 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Not to mention the transfers we got in Golson and Matthews from rival schools! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weagl1 1,782 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Gator fans sure are pissed off right now claiming Muschamp took their money and screwed them going after players he was recruiting for UF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trout54 55 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Oops....... maybe they shouldn't have fired him...... oh, well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom1ni0n 51 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Oops....... maybe they shouldn't have fired him...... oh, well. Or, or Perhaps UF should have structured Will's contract better. They fell on their own broomstick. Gator fans sure are pissed off right now claiming Muschamp took their money and screwed them going after players he was recruiting for UF. Tough tit. Fault Foley, not the good guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom1ni0n 51 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 The coaches secured most of the top prospects they targeted. The Muschamp effect payed dividends as well. I'm interested now probably more than ever to see how this staff continues to recruit in seasons to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooltigger21 0 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Gator fans sure are pissed off right now claiming Muschamp took their money and screwed them going after players he was recruiting for UF. What did they expect? He abided by the terms of his contract. If UF can't make a better deal than that, well that's their fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJBas 4 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Gator fans sure are pissed off right now claiming Muschamp took their money and screwed them going after players he was recruiting for UF. He probably did, but that's part of the game. They didn't want him any more, understandably, and paid a bundle to get rid of him. But if they are to be honest, an offer from Auburn now (for any player) would be far more enticing than an offer from Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested now probably more than ever to see how this staff continues to recruit in seasons to come. I'll be interested to see how long this staff remains this staff. As long as they do, I think we can expect elite recruiting, but who knows how long that will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr82b4au 5,568 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 The coaches secured most of the top prospects they targeted. The Muschamp effect payed dividends as well. I put this in the recruiting threads but thank goodness for Champ and T Rob. They were responsible for one 5* and five 4*s, including most of our top defensive prospects. Our defensive class went from pretty good to great. Without them we miss on Cartlon, Cowart, J Davis, R Davis, Holland, and Irvin. It is that simple. Saved our bacon really...

doc4aday 1,887 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 What is the star rating for each transfer (Golson & Matthews)? I wish whoever makes the rules would add all JUCO recruits into the mix of the overall rating of the team. Is this going to be addressed with the changes in the air about the recruiting process? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the departed defensive staff members would have hauled in half the guys you listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
