Ok
On it. Stand by....

Ok if we were to drop Tripp (how dare you!) and Frankie and go 5/5 on our big targets the rest of the way, both UM and TX 2022 would have an equal six OL signees.

We would end up with a score of 140.52, which would be below their 151.09, but better than any other OL class in the last five years. And honestly, ***** these hoe rankings. I trust Mario and Alex's evals 100x over anyone working at Rivals, 247, or any of the other car washes.

But this isn't happening, we're doing great, but that's really threading the needle.
Went and did my own research. First off Texas signed 7 OL, not 6.

I didn't write their names, just their rankings and positions
Texas top 6:
Nat Rk : 10,33,91,269,362,407

Position Rk:
1,3,4,23,13,35

Rating:
.9944, .9842,.9599,.9064,.8965,.8919
Canes possible top 6:
Nat Rk:
9,20,62,123,260,433

Pos Rk:
1,3,8,15,25,27

Rating:
.9954,.9887,.9699,.9441,.9100,.8869

Thats comparing Texas 6 highest to our possible 6 highest. The lowest ranked was Tripp, with not Frankie and No Tinsler.

We’re splitting hairs here.
We sign Honcho, this will be the best OL class Miami has signed ever.

Sure, fellas. It's a long article about Miami OL recruiting on Rivals. Here is the relevant excerpt, edited and paraphrased:

We went back and looked at the top OL classes from 2018-22 and according to the Class Calculator, here are the five best OL classes during that span:

1. 2022 Texas (7 signees): 151.09 offensive line score

2. 2020 Georgia (6 signees): 135.77 offensive line score

3. 2019 Alabama (5 signees): 122.96 offensive line score

4. 2021 Alabama (5 signees): 125.94 offensive line score

5. 2018 Georgia (5 signees): 120.49 offensive line score

Texas’ 2022 offensive line class featured two five-star signees in Devon Campbell and Kelvin Banks. In addition to those two, the Longhorns added four four-star signees in Neto Umeozulu, Malik Agbo, Cole Hutson, and Cameron Williams.

That Georgia offensive line from the 2020 class featured 5-star Broderick Jones along with 4-star Tate Ratledge, 4-star Sedrick Van Pran, and 4-star Chad Lindberg.

The 2019 Alabama offensive line class featured 5-star Evan Neal, 4-star Pierce Quick, 4-star Amari Kight, 4-star Darrian Dalcourt, and 4-star Tanner Bowles.

So what would it take for Miami to crack this group?

Let’s start add three-star Tommy Kinsler to the current commits, who is trending to Miami on the 247Sports Crystal Ball. Adding Payton Kirkland, who is a four-star that ranks No. 259 overall in the country gets Miami to a 97.30 offensive line score in the 247Sports Class Calculator.

If the Hurricanes can add 4-star Olaus Alinen, who ranks No. 123 overall in the country, according to the 247Sports Composite, Miami jumps up to 119.26 with its offensive line class calculator score.

What would the dream scenario be? Adding 5-star Samson Okunlola to the group of Alinen, Kirkland, and Kinsler to the current group of three commits. That seven-man class would feature a 247Sports Class Calculator score of 144.52 on the offensive line.



If we land all four of those guys, Texas' 2022 class is still ahead of us. But the good news is we would have dusted every other OL class in the last five years besides that one, which Texas outright bought anyway. Of course Freeling is still out there too. But I highly doubt we are taking eight guys, nor do I feel like we will have the opportunity to anyway. If we got Freeing too, so going 5/5 with a massive 8 kid class, only then would we jump Texas's class, which only had 6 kids. They wrote that Texas had 7 kids above, but only listed 6. So I went and looked at their class and I only count 6 OL.

So we would have to have a 33% bigger OL class than Texas did to jump them.

Being frank, Frankie and Tripp are dragging us down in this conversation. Being really frank, I could give a crap about all of this. Happy to have all these guys. They are Canes. I hope Frankie makes it in.
Regarding those rankings, can someone explain why he has the 2019 bama class ranked higher than the 21 bama class when the number of players signed is equal but the 21 class has a higher score?

Keep an eye on his rankings - lol.
I’m thinking he would announce on somewhere like CBS Sports, seems to be the most popular right now, especially for our Guys.

Yeah thats certain but the exchange was comparing our best possible class with Texas's. And by my numbers of everything breaks our way, we would have a better class.
