How high can our class go

I just asked the same question in the Ambles thread. Where would it land us if we were to get Ambles, Stone, and Rogers tomorrow?

If UT finishes with Stone, Rogers, and Ambles it will be a top 6 or 5 class on Rivals.

Without Ambles it will most likely be around 7 or 8 on Rivals.

On Scout, 10 and on ESPN 10

If we land the #2 and #3 WRs with a top 100 OL in Stone, she should easily jump into the top five with the other that committ.

We'll also have to factor in guys that we lose. Williams and Stanley are possibilities it seems. Hopefully nobody else.

No. Look at the top five. If we pick up stone ambles and Rogers and lose williams and Stanley, we don't move much. If we don't get ambles we will fall a bit. Others are picking up commits too.

Rivals takes your top 22 guys - losing 3* in Ralph Williams won't do anything really - Stanley will hurt a little bit but add a 4* and 2 5*s will do a lot. Who knows - we could even add another 4* in Robinson.

Rivals uses a long forumula for their recruiting ranking points that isn't nearly as complicated as it looks. I sat and figured it up about an hour ago. If we managed to finish with Stone, Ambles, Rogers, and hold on to Stanley (assuming Williams is gone)...we would have a total of 2437 points, which would put us about right above Auburn for #3 (by 17 pts.) for the time being. Now, you also have to factor in the possibility of other schools pulling in last minute commits. Would the addition of Dorsey and Christian Green to FSU vault them ahead of us? I wouldn't think so. As it stands, everyone in front of us have atleast 25 commits. LSU and Bama could pick another 1 or 2, but that may not be enough to keep up with us....IF we signed Ambles, Rogers, Stone and Robinson.

You really never know, but my point is: If we pick up the 2 5 stars and the 2 4 stars and hold onto Glen Stanley...you're looking at a solid 3-5 class.

Yes. Especially since since we address most needs at least minimally.

On a total change of subject ( I cant start my own thread). Is anyone going to start a thread about Wilcox being hired as the DC. Seems like an awful lot of legit commentary on TOS for it to be another wild goose chase.

For anyone interested (or is good with spreadsheets), here is the Rivals Recruiting Formula:


POINTS = [N / (N + 50) * H] + [50 / (N + 50) * L]

llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

Calculation of H & L:

a = # of 5* commits
b = # of 4*
c = # of 3*
d = # of 2*
e = # of 1*

H = 250a + 140b + 75c + 20d + 10e

L = 18a + 12b + 8c + 3d + e


lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

CALCULATION OF N:

PART A:

10 pts. for each commit on the Rivals 100 (high school) ranked 1-10
9 pts. for each commit on the Rivals 100 (high school) ranked 11-20
etc. down to...
1 pt. for each commit on the Rivals 100 (high school) ranked 91-100
-----------------------------------
PART B:

10 pts. for each commit on the Rivals 100 (non-high school) ranked 1-10
9 pts. for each commit on the Rivals 100 (non-high school) ranked 11-20
etc. down to...
6 pts. for each commit on the Rivals 100 (non-high school) ranked 41-50
----------------------
PART C:

24 pts. for each commit ranked #1 on his official position ranking
18 pts. for each commit ranked #2-5 on his official position ranking
8 pts. for each commit ranked 6-X on his official position ranking, where X is dependent on detail position, as listed below:

--Dual-threat QB: 25
--Pro-style QB: 25
--Running Back: 35
--All-Purpose Back: 15
--Fullback: 15
--Wide Receiver: 50
--Tight End: 20
--Offensive Tackle: 40
--Offensive Guard: 30
--Offensive Center: 10
--Defensive Tackle: 50
--Weakside Defensive End: 20
--Strongside Defensive End: 30
--Inside Linebacker: 35
--Outside Linebacker: 35
--Cornerback: 40
--Safety: 30
--Athlete: 25
--Kicker: (no points awarded for rank lower than 5th)
--------------------------------------
PART D:

If the team's average stars are greater than 3, then you must also add the following formula to N:

(AVG Stars - 3) x 100

SO....

N = PART A + PART B + PART C + PART D (if applicable)
-----------------------------------
Go back and plug in your values for H, L and N. Using order of operations, you should be able to solve easily with a calculator.

Its not nearly as hard as it looks...just time consuming.

Big threads over in the football area, not here in recruiting....

I say if thing go REALLY well we can end up top 3. I expect top 5. Will be 100% happy with as low as 7th.

Considering what we were looking at a couple of weeks ago, Top 10 should excite us. Look forward to the next one.
