....this year...this class.
Let's SLOWLY bring up a few points. S L O W L Y.
Point One...
Has USF ever had an average, or even worse, bad recruiting year with Taggart at the helm? Simple answer: No
Point Two...
How many commits will UCF take compared to USF in this years class? UCF is at 14 today. My guess is 25 plus/minus two. But how many exactly? Does anybody know or have a clue? I'm gonna put 15 for a safe guess for USF.
Point Three...
Taggart is playing Frost....not the other way around. Doesn't look that way though, now does it. They have at the very least half of their class filled up now, UCF that is, and I'm, expecting close to the same amount of reaches that they have right now. Reaches meaning players ranked lesser than 80 TOS
After a close comparison with their current class and our previous class with nearly the same amount of commits, Frost - almost across the board - has nearly every player rated lower than USF's class of a year ago starting with Michael Wiggs, 79.86 versus TJ Pitts 77.98. Go up from the bottom of both classes and nearly every player rated by TOS is higher - approximately 12 out of 14 - in USF's favor than UCF's.
Point Four...
How many have noted that UCF is destroying us in pure numbers, but if the shoe was on the other foot, you wouldn't want three players ranked under 80 TOS. You wouldn't. You would freak out if we "reached" this early for so many lesser ranked players. In Taggart's first season he had a total of 6 of 28 compared to 7 of 22 rated less than an 80 for Frost's first year. Taggart wins. In the past three seasons Willie has reached for only 4 less than 80. Frost has 3 this year so far.
So it's not always about how many, but more about quality and finding the Sanchez's and L. Williams's of the world.
