True, but momentum is a good thing.

Remind me where we were last year or the year before. Yeah, this is better, that is why it matters.

Yup.
Staying close to 50 would be amazing.

This is definitely some positive momentum going into summer...the coaches are putting in the work and it is paying off. Can't way for the '15 season and beyond with this staff.

Top 40! Can we do it? I don't know. That should be the goal though.

we are going to need a couple of 4's to get close to top 40. I would be happy if we end up among the top 3 or 4 non P-5 schools. That should put us at least 50 ish at the end which is enough to compete at the top of the AAC and knock off a P-5 on occasion. We will need to squeeze into a P-5 to expect much more than that.

Was it you who laughed at me for saying this will easily be a top 40 class?

Probably. Even if that does happen, which it won't this year, it wouldn't ever come "easily"

its probably been done only about 3-4 times in the last decade-and some of those teams are now P5

To get to the 40s, we may need to fill the rest of the class with 3 stars and maybe 1 or 2 four stars. Like others have said, unlikely this year...I think we finish in the 50s though. Look at the type pf teams in the top 65 and I can see us jump ahead of 10 to 15 of the ones in the lower rung...the wake forest s, vandy, iowa state and purdues of the world and maybe end up top 3 g5 below cougar, maybe boise.
