Here are all of the members of the 2013 who have left the team for any reason. It's amazing what a couple of seasons can do to a class.
quote:
Fortunately, we signed 30+. Perhaps the coaches knew they were taking some reaches, and were confident they could get this # down as it worked itself out on the field. We did lose some guys that were or could have been contributors though.
quote:...Talking about reality doesn't mean you're a cliff jumper.
THE SKY IS FALLING!!!!
quote:On 2015-2016 Roster:
for comparison, does anybody have the players from the same class that are contributing or expected to contribute?
quote:
These threads are always funny, as are the post signing day group fellating. Perhaps one day those lamenting will finally figure out that on average, 1/2 of a recruiting class will contribute next to nothing. Roughly half of the guys the recruiting fan boys were dreaming about this past February will suffer the same fate, and on and on. Rinse and repeat.

This is a dangerous rationale. I wouldn't say that it's "average" for over half a class to contribute next to nothing. In fact, I bet this 2013 class just might have the worst attrition of any class in FBS history.
And I'm not sure why Justin Manning isn't on this list- anyone have a line of where he is/ how he is doing currently? With his absence, that is 16 and counting from the 2013 no longer with the program. Totally unacceptable. I knew the swag bs would bite us- glad we are moving away from that.

Sign 25 kids/yr x 4 years = 100 kids
44 kids on the 2-deep (call these contributors)
44% of kids recruited become contributors on average
30 kids in 2013 class...estimated 13 kids become contributors, 17 don't on average

quote:Those 44 spots are made up of guys that have been on the roster for 4 years, 3 years, 2 years, 1 year, and maybe 5 years if they redshirted. There's a reason why we sign 25+ guys a year, and only have 85 schollies...plenty of attrition built in.
Your math is way over simplified. In ANY given year, you have 44 on the 2 deep. But a kid has 4 years to make it to the 2 deep (Most freshman don't break the 2 deep, notice I said most, not all).
So that number is a whole lot higher then 44% becoming contributors eventually.
