Gotta give Dino credit

You mean Eric Dungy? Lewis was gone for 2018 and Mike Lynch had the reigns during the 10-3 season.

Mike may have been the OC, but Eric changed a lot of the play calls in all the games. So in reality Eric was the OC when Mike had that title.

Nope, won't give him credit at all. Yes those names are impressive and I'm grateful for them all but you judge recruiting by both the national ranking and within our conference. Those numbers aren't good.

Given what we know about recruiting rankings and the politics involved, I don't think its a good idea to judge recruiting success/failure based on the national rankings. Sure, if you're higher in the rankings, chances are you're more likely to have success... But even through 1 year of Fran. I'd argue our lower ranked recruits were more impactful as freshmen.

Watson - our most impactful freshman IMO - was middle of the pack and a low 3-star prospect.
Kerr - completely unranked with 0 stars on 247.

We'll see how it all shakes out, but the recruiting services are just guessing (outside of the truly elite guys) based on offer sheets.

That is literally what I just said …
