Yeah, but even Cooper's getting in on the commercials...

It's going to be entertaining, I surmise.  I'm obviously not a recruiting junky, I often see a note when my team signs someone or gets a commit, but really, I can't get too excited over signing a great class.  I want to see some actual performance on the field, maybe convert that into an actual NC someday.

Hypothetical, if you are one of the elite HS players at your position and have no particular favorite school to attend, where would you put in your top three?

Presume you are an OK but not elite student, so Stanford is out (the place I'd most want to attend I think).

Pick a position and consider your top three, location is not a criterion.

OL - Wisconsin would make my list, probably with Alabama and Ohio State.  (Would you look at a program like say UNC or UVA thinking you'd start soon?)

Your objective simply put it so sign a large pro contract in three years.

pro contracts are always large

OLine, I might not pick Bama or a top program with a loaded roster and/or 2-deep.

Might want to get on the field sooner

you want a roster 2-deep loaded with skill position players that will put up points and make highlight plays to showcase the OLine ability

a lot of factors

NIL$$$
close to home for family
preferred degree program _ school
overall campus environment
conference preference

any top program in the ACC, B1G, SEC, or ACC that has a track record of developing talent at your position is going to get you a shot at the first 3 rounds of the NFL draft.

top 3 for me if I'm an O-lineman?  understanding the roster isn't loaded at my position???

Ohio St., Wisconsin, Clemson

OL is a bit tough in that when they call your name, it's for holding and a missed block.

If I'm an elite WR, I'd be looking at LSU and Ohio St.

Alabama has done well with WRs of late, obviously OSU as well.  UGA had a WR transfer to Bama though he may get fewer catches there than at UGA.

The do have Young at QB and he is quite good.

Texas A&M offered Dante Moore, so UM and MSU are out

Nyckoles Harbor, a 6-foot-5, 225-pound athlete out of Archbishop Carroll in Washington, D.C., might be the most-terrifying college football recruit in the country.
Take, for example, what the five-star college football recruit looks like on the track.
The No. 16 overall recruit in the 2023 class, per 247Sports’ Composite Rankings, ran a 10.32 in the 100m dash on Sunday.
This is just absurd:
Good luck stopping him, offensive linemen.
Harbor, the No. 2 athlete in the 2023 class, is currently being linked to Alabama, Maryland, Michigan, Oklahoma and Oregon, among others.

Is that the last time a team with a good defense and "game manager" at QB wins the NC?

QBs seemed to portal a lot, understandably, they get stacked up at a program like Ohio State and then don't quite make the No. 1.

Then they go to say LSU and light up the world.

5 of the Composite top 10 players are coming to MSU's spring game. On one hand, that's never a bad thing. On the other hand, I have a hard time believing any of those kids are committing to Michigan State. And just getting into the top five of a bunch of 5* recruits isn't worth a hill of beans, and the best recruits you have a chance of getting, now feel like your plan. B

4* S Ryan Yaites out of TX, tried to commit to Texas, and they wouldn't accept it.  Named a top 5 that excluded them, but included MSU.  Apparently tried to commit to MSU, and they wouldn't accept it.  Now named a top 4 that is just is top 5 minus MSU.  But it does include LSU.  Weird situation
