So with Rex's verbal, I decided to take a look at the 2 47 composite rankings.

The not so awesome first glance had us move from #68 > #65. But as last years high ranking early reminded me - they do this list based on point values of the player AND # of recruits. Last year we had a ton of early verbals putting us in the 20-30 range nationally. Of course we dropped as everyone else caught up to round out their classes. (To be clear - I love last years class and think a lot of them were/are underrated.) [I]I figured it might be more helpful to look at the average point rating of our recruits.[/I]

Our average was [B]83.26[/B] for 2014 (9th in the ACC by avg)
Our average was [B]82.69[/B] for 2015 (14th in the ACC by avg)
So far in 2016 with only 4 guys our avg is [B]85.37 [/B](6th in the ACC by avg) - and that's with RW44's loss of a star mysteriously from Reevals

I'm not super-confident it will stay that high - but it does point out that we are off to a really nice start. If things continue on this trajectory, we're looking at a nice jump nationally - maybe a top 25-30 class. Long way to go - but interesting none the less.
