I wanted to do a little research on the matter of our "horrible" recruiting so I put this report together. I could only go back to 2002 so the data below is from 2002-2015. It's not an attempt to make a case either way. It's merely for information purposes only. Drastic drop? Consistent? Five star production? Big difference in star ratings vs nfl production?
