Top ten. This year. And with a top ten final AP poll finish, we're off and running. What a difference a few top tier commitments makes...

Going off points on the 247 rankings...
280+ is a great class. Usually enough to be top 5 or around top 5.
290+ is top 5, sometimes top 3
300+ is an elite class

There are already 2 280+ teams (ND, Ohio St). Texas and Clemson are ahead of us now. We have to assume that Bama and UGA will probably surge. Then there are the usual suspects that finish inside the top 10 routinely that we will have to fend off.

We will be top 10, just have to keep bolstering a solid class.

I figure somewhere around 10. If we're 5 currently and continue to add high value commitments, think we'll hold in there. Looking at pure numbers and 4*/5* ratios to 3*'s, you've got to figure that teams like UGA, Bama, maybe LSU, OK, USC, may pass us. On a totally different topic, Auburn sitting at #66 on rivals w/ 4... 4*s.

Georgia and Bama havent hit their recruiting stride as of yet, I imagine they will over take us before December.

This is a really tough year to make projections. IF IF IF there is no 25 initial counter limit this year as alluded HERE, and you just add up points for the number of players signed, who knows. Some services in the past have limited the number of recruits they would calculate in, do they still do that? On top of that the total impact of whatever the answers are is less than in the past with the portal plug and play options in play with ONE TIME rules. IF 85 counters in the fall is the only constraint it will depend on how many openings each school has and how much NIL impact they can make, including the POTENTIAL that more kids getting offers will wait till the late signing period to make sure they can get and assess all NIL offers. So do you count ALL commits or only those signing their NLI? This all makes my head hurt.

Bottom line I think we close ground on the power brokers of recent years and I voted 6-10 in a traditional format. Coach's trending up and solid NIL setup will help us get better.

6 or 7 if we meet expectations this season. 4 or 5 if we exceed expectations.

8-12 range probably. if a few of our guys get bumps and we get in on some guys as the season goes, could be 5-7 range.

We are going to finish the season 9-3, then we are going to whoop whoever we play in the Citrus Bowl, and finish the recruiting year with 2 five stars, 12 four stars, and 11 three stars. Guys like Leacock, Smith, and Weathersby will/should be composite four stars. (I'm sure we will take more, but I'm just going by the usual 25.)

We have 5 or 6 guys that will get a ratings bump also.... we will be ok and this is the best class we have had in a while.

Yet they still managed to grab a recruit or 2 we really wanted. SEC is tough recruiting waters

A few things:
After it's all said and done
Nico will be the #1 Overall player in America.
Seldon will play a full season and put up ridiculous #s because he's been training hard. Bigger and faster.

And something tells me, we're going to sign another 5 star playmaker on offense.

This clas will be firmly Top 10. I think #5

I think 12 at the low and 6 at the high. I am not sure who we may be in on during the season. As we win the players will come. Garner will get a bonus player this year too.

AS I poorly alluded to up this thread, rankings may be a bit odd this year. Fundamentally in the past every school could sign and get scored on 25 initial counters. IF that is IN FACT not a limit this year some school may have lots fewer impact players but actually sign 35 kids and those points will add up and skew the rankings as we have known them. Some services used to count them all, others only up to 25. On top of that the portal players not being factored is a big deal NOW. The beauty contest will go on, but not be the indicator of total relative success or failure it used to be.

We are currently ranked 15th when you look at our average per commit, that means 14 other teams will be ahead of us if we finish with the same amount of commits. And look what we have committed, there’s just not a ton of high 4*’s or 5*’s left that we are in it for left.

Yes we have a good class, but we are ranked this high based on the number of commits we have

Deletion of the 25 initial counter rule, it will depend more on how many we take versus what others take. The average rating is a better indicator of your class than the ranking imo.

With that said, I think we wound up somewhere around 10 +/- 3. I voted 11-15 because I’m used to being hurt.
