...this class has the ability to be more than a reasonably solid UA class. Two reasons I say this, here in June. While the class is filling up, there is still room for RR and staff to possibly land a few superstar quality recruits that I know they are chasing. Time will tell if they land them or not, but that would obviously be a huge factor. The other thing is just how RR has always recruited, back to WVU and Michigan. He's always gone after "his guys" that fit his system, regardless of rankings. And he's had more than his fair share of superstar players that were not highly ranked in HS - guys like Dennard Robinson and Pat White come to mind quickly, but there's been many more.
