I know cig not does base his recruiting on five stars but this was a massive win for two reasons. 

 

1. We just won the title so we should be able to now get five stars and it proves we can.

2. This being a Indiana guy made it even more important to get him. It also proves we can compete with the big boys.

What's making me LOL is all the Bama folks on X who thought they still had a shot and now they're all like "rankings don't matter"!

 

Yeah, we were already aware of the when our group of "40 0* 30 year-olds" whooped ya from one side of Pasadena to the other.  Funny how a little humble pie changes the tone REAL quick.

It is what we have often said when we weren't getting top recruits.

While funny coming from bama fans due to having a history of getting the best ranked players, it isn't inaccurate.  Rankings only matter to the extent in which they are accurate.  There are a lot of good players that fall through the cracks and don't get ranked or not accurately ranked.  so you cant really judge a player or class by what the media says

What really matters is the player evaluation by the staff.  We are lucky to have a staff that prioritizes the right traits and fit with the team.  Looking for players that want to get better and be developed on top of being a good athlete.
