In the newspaper it has been state Fulmer had our recruiting class at 6. Well, I believe our average stars were 3.47. I believe we had eight 4 star prospects and nine 3 star for a total of 17 verbals. PLEASE SOMEONE CORRECT ME. If, I am wrong.
We now have eight 4 star and eight 3 star for an average of 3.50. I am not sure on the number of available scholarships. I would say 24 max. Assuming we land seven more 4 star and one 3 star. Which would put our average star rating at 3.63.
Right now, there are eight schools with a higher average than 3.63. Assuming most of them have atleast 24 scholarships available. I think the best we could do would be 9th. Which would be a great recruiting class.
A lot of fans are talking about Fulmer having a number six recruiting class. The only reason was due to the number of commits we had versus the other teams. We had a lot more commits at that time.
I don't think Fulmer would have landed a top ten class. I think a few others would have decommitted due to the direction of the program. And, I don't think the prospects were being sold on the idea of playing as a freshman. Fulmer don't play many freshman. He constantly says they don't know their assignments. Which ultimately was his fault!!!!!!!
