The portal will save us! Recruiting rankings are not reliable.


Based on 247, Darrisaw, Farley, Herbert and Diablo were all three star players so recruiting rankings are not exact. Farley was drafted more on potential but he was still a solid player. A lot of the four star folks flunk out or get arrested or transfer. The two four star OL from the 2019 class transferred out to play back home. It takes a few years to figure out if recruiting classes are good since it takes a bit longer for some to contribute.

The portal has been really good for Tech but a case could be made that Tech has lost more to the portal. Herbert, Willis and Burmeister have all come in and contributed. I like the portal guys since they are more likely to be mature and acclimated to the college environment.
