USF has highest rated non-P5 2014 recruiting class

[JupiterBull]

I exclude Notre Dame, as an indy holdout that could be in P5 if they wanted, and Lville is ACC next year, and really, only a few spots ahead of us...which could change with a strong (no pun intended) finish.

 

Given we have won 5 games in 2 years, this is a HUGE testament to what Coach Taggart & team are selling, and that the local kids want to be part of something special.

 

It'll need to translate on the field of course, but I think this fact is awesome:  highest ranking non-P5 class for 2014.  Pretty impressive.

With a ranking of 39 on 247, we must be ranked ahead of quite a few P5 schools as well.

This is amazing considering our record the last few years.

Now CWT needs #dosomething on the field.

Gotta get the right guys on the field first. We will see it. If not this year than next. We are rebuilding the right way.

Let's wait until signing day to really evaluate this upcoming class, hopefully the bulls will not loose any of their commits till nsd. But if CWT doesn't get a starting left tackle from this class, it will be another bad season for the bulls. I hope he gets a juco tackle who is ready to start.

Denzel is still out there lurking. We are in final 2 and he loves Coach. Not a JUCO but seems to be more body mature than what we have in so far

I would be absolutely shocked if we pull a LT in this class that starts this coming season.  There is a small chance you can get an OLine guy from a Juco that is ready to start, but having that guy be a LT is an even longer shot.  We need someone currently on the roster to step up next year and grab the bull by the horns.

Did we get anyone last year that would have bulked up by now?

Hall is massive.  Whatever happened to some of the others, like Max Lang?  Would be cool to see an update to the classes, and where they are (starter, back ups, still on the roster, and gone).

Hard to be a Nancy with the run we are on, huh, Data?

Just a realist.  It's all great to say "Wow we might get this guy", or "Taggart is doing great because we might get this guy".  So what?  Over the last three years there have been lots of great recruits we almost got.  Kind of ridiculous to be excited a month ago, though some were.  It's looking reasonably good, but let's not be too excited until the ink is dry.  Even then, we have to start seeing them on the field against real D1 competition before we pass judgement.  Plenty of highly thought of recruits will do zero on the field their entire college career.

 

The unbridled excitement over a mediocre class several weeks ago was complete green and gold goggles thinking.
