Reason for optimism

What evidence are you referring to specifically? Rankings? Offer sheets? Highlight Vids?

Yeah. All that points to this being a better class than we’ve had in a loooong time. I take it your in the “I’ll evaluate after the graduate”

At this point referring to Rivlz when it comes to Syracuse recruiting is irrelevant. Look at every other site, combined with a little common sense, a quick glance at each commits offer sheets, and you can pretty easily conclude that this is by far the best recruiting class in the last 15-20 years. I know people used to puff up HCSS recruiting prowess, but that was severely overblown. All things considered (facilities, conference affiliation) and you can easily summarize that HCSS was probably a little less effective recruiter than Marrone (who doesn't get nearly the credit he deserves). What Babers is doing with this class blows everything out of the water from any class of the last 2 regimes, as well as Babers first 2 classes. This class is loaded with big, talented, athletes, that fit the offensive and defensive systems, from top to bottom . To say this class is more of the same is just ignorant.

This.
 
I know we dont want to compare ourselves to rutgers, but checked their class and ours on skowt. We have 11 kids rated above 0.85 and rutgers only has four. Our average rating is 0.02 pts higher. Also has our class 37 overall and 7 in acc. Thats solid
 
Rivals is trash. The have zero Cuse subscribers so they don't care about looking at our recruits.

Well said.
 
Fine, maybe rivals is trash, I wonder if people would still think they are trash if they had our class in the 30s. And I hope you are all right and that it's not just another avg class, I want to win as much as anyone. The fact is the same stuff is said every year and when someone points it out a bunch of people jump in and defend the class just like now. Guys like AJ Long were hyped up big time, and he wasn't alone. I have concerns about Dino recruiting specifically for his system too... to the point that maybe we should just extend him now because a look at BG tells me that abandoning this system after 2 years of Babers recruits is a disaster. All or nothing.
