Is this the best class on paper?? I think prior to yesterday it was without a doubt..today not so sure. Still a great group and none of that matters for a yr or 2 and they have to prove it on the field!
8 guys with BCS offers plus the JUCO(s) says its better than last year, though last year was the best ever up to that date. A slightly better class than last season.
I know Clark doesn't even necessarily rate as the top player by some of the services, but his actually scholarship offers seem to be of the highest caliber of any player I can remember the Bobcats getting. By my count, he had 11 offers to BCS schools, including to a school (Arkansas) that finished this past season ranked fifth in the country.
Seems like Kenny Ashley fit that bill. Or going back further maybe Wiz White.
I know Ashley was highly recruited out of high school but by the time he signed with Ohio, I don't remember him having quite the same kind of offers out of junior college. Wiz White was before I started paying much attention to recruiting.
Not having Wiggins is disappointing, but I agree with others. I'm glad he made a decision for what's best for him now, rather than later. I wish him well.
I'm still extremely pleased with the class as a whole, especially if some of the lower rated players prove to be under-valued as many in the past have.
