Fraudulent Recruiting Rankings
Fraudulent Recruiting Rankings
Interesting read from The Wiz of Odds based off of an article in The Wall Street Journal about how the recruiting hype, is just that.

My guess is that BK cosponsored these articles, so that ND Nation chills out about the RKG factor.

Another proof that a LOT of fans get way too caught up in the recruiting rankings rather than getting players that have discipline, good character and work ethic.

Recruiting rankings are kind of like team payroll in baseball.
The Yankees always spend the most money. Does it mean they always win the world series?
No.
But it sure as hell makes it easier.

But they are always in the conversation. The Devil Rays are lthe 2 and 3 star teams, they may put it together every now and then but are usually mediocre

I'm going on record to say that I hope I have to eat my words on players and recruiting. Kelly may make a believer out of me. I think he will be a great coach and now he's making me think he can do it the way Notre Dame wants it done. I'm all for Notre Dame keeping the academic profile so lets see. The guy reminds me of Ara more and more. Maybe we dont have to do it like the semi pro football teams that are in BCS games.
