tough crowd-he was pretty much gushing about the job Morris was doing-all he said was that a majority of the class would be high 3 stars and throw in a couple of 4 stars. If we actually did that we would probably come close to Top 45-50 which is a home-run non-F5 Class.

SMU finished 82nd last year. If they get into the top 60 they would be doing a fine job.

Goals for recruiting should be in this in this order 1) #1 in AAC 2) Highest of non-P5 teams 3) top 50 class.

This also is what i think is most to least likely.

We won't recruit our way to football glory. success will come from solid recruiting that is above our peers and getting more out of the talent then expected. TCU is never a powerhouse in recruiting but they are solid and they turn solid recruits into great players through really good coaching. Same is true for Boise State.

People were saying we had a shot at Top 60 class if we landed some of those guys that went elsewhere like English and Abercrumbia.
