They had quite a bit of attrition. But mother fizzleer that state is loaded with talent! Wonder what our blue-chip % was in 98? I'd say 65-75% Title: Re: Blue-Chip Ratio 2022: The 15 teams who can actually win a national title Post by: PirateVOL on July 17, 2022, 04:14:30 EDT Little surprised that Florida is still at 60%.

1. Note the gap between them and number 2 is greater (by far!) than any other gap on the list. 2. This is even after a couple years where, for the first time in a decade, they had to settle for no. 2 in recruiting (though that's probably not a big drop off). 3. Saban is a good to very good coach, but he is an exceptional recruiter. That understates it. He is the best recruiter in the history of sports by a country mile, period dot. 4. Not only is 3 sketchy, but we can be reasonably sure it wasn't 'just Saban'. Bonus: Under the category of lack of self-awareness, Saban apparently thinks it's all his coaching ability. At least, based on how he acts. Bonus 2: The recent inroads into bammer's (unreal and unbelievable and almost certainly corrupt) dominance in recruiting is ending as (a) uga cuts into it (Kirby learned from the master!) and (by far the biggest factor and thus the source of Saban butt-hurtedness), the NIL cuts deeply into it. He knows the jig is up! Let me add in respect to Bonus 1, that Saban is surely aware how important the recruiting is to their success. My point is his public behavior of acting like the god of football, sneering arrogance, rudeness and incredible disdain for reporters does not reflect this awareness. :biggrin: :beer: Title: Re: Blue-Chip Ratio 2022: The 15 teams who can actually win a national title Post by: volsboy on July 19, 2022, 05:38:30 EDT Surprised UF was on the list. Didn't think their talent was that good. They did still mange to beat us. If we get over that mental thing we have when we play them, and start beating them regularly, it would really put pressure on UGa and give us a legit shot at winning the East. UF is going to be a big game, as usual, this season.
