This class is also very competitive with JJ's last 5 classes at Hawaii -- some years he had a few more 3 stars that SMU in 08, some years less, but overall, this class is comparable to his Hawaii classes.

We're still 86 out of 119. Not even in the top half. But a good save given the time constraints. It doesn't look like a wasted class as some were predicting three weeks ago.

And if TCU ends up in the 90's, the shine is definitely off Patterson's rose.

hardly. that ranking system weighs pretty heavily on the number of players signed, TCU hadn't planned on taking a large class this year anyway. i had always heard mid to high teens from my frog friends

The TCU Class is not near as Bad as suggested but not near as good as TCU fans had hoped. They really struggled down the stretch which actually surprises me since there were vacancies at SMU, Baylor, UH, A&M among others. They just got beat up by BCS schools down the stretch. Tulsa is another that probably had commitments from about 15 three star recruits but couldn't hold on to about 8 of them. Still not a bad class for Tulsa but it could have been something else.

Where does TCU stand in terms of average stars. All of those point systems are just stupid. We have 14 commitments so average stars is the only way to compare (if you must).

No. 63 in the country which is only a tad off from where you want be for a non-BCS school.

Thanks for researching so quickly. I was just noticing that we had the same rivals avg stars as Fresno which is "ranked" #55.
