I wanted to lay out the top-rated recruit we have at each position, just to see what we could take from it. I used the 247 composite rankings, but for transfers, I just used the transfer ranking. It's not realistic as an on-field lineup, and I did a little finagling on defense, but here's what I came up with:

QB - TVD (Jr) 91.73
RB - Trevonte Citizen (RS-Fr) 95.50
WR - Ray Ray Joseph (Fr) 94.05
WR - Michael Redding III (Jr) 92.70
WR - Jacolby George (Jr) 92.57
TE - Jaleel Skinner (So) 95.62
OT - Francis Mauigoa (Fr) 99.60
OT - Samson Okunlola (Fr) 98.86
IOL - Jalen Rivers (Jr) 94.25
IOL - Javion Cohen (RS-Jr) 93.00
IOL - Laurance Seymour (Jr) 92.48

DT - Leonard Taylor (Jr) 99.38
DT - Rueben Bain (Fr) 97.09
DE - Chantz Williams (Jr) 96.34
DE - Jayden Wayne (Fr) 96.22
LB - Cyrus Moss (So) 97.10
LB - Malik Bryant (Fr) 93.20
LB - Wesley Bissainthe (So) 92.74
S - James Williams (Jr) 99.21
S - Antione Jackson *** (Fr) 91.40
CB - Chris Graves (So) 93.65
CB - Robert Stafford (Fr) 93.63

Some things that stand out:
-This shows why WR recruiting this year was so vital and why it hurts that we struck out almost everywhere.
-Everyone knows O-line recruiting was bad before Mario, but I think most of us expect that to be a recruiting strength for a while.
-The CB position ... I think we all knew.

What does anyone else see here?

6 of 11 OFF starters are Mario Era....we're extremely young and recruiting but more importantly EVALS and DEVELOPMENT went terribly wrong 2019-2021...with free C19 year this list of 22 players should be dominated with Jr's and Sr's


8 of 11 DEF starters are Mario Era...again, we're young and recruiting went terribly wrong 2019-2021

One of us is missing the point of this exercise. I thought the purpose here is to go strictly by recruiting rankings and see what the lineup looks like based on that not by who’s actually starting or better???

I wanted to check where our talent level has been in recruiting each position and also just see whether the numbers showed any other trends or insights.

Another poster noted that 14/22 players were recruited by Mario (although I'm not giving credit for Chris Graves); so, that's an insight. What will this look like in Feb 2024? 2025?

If we did this for Clemson, do they have 5-stars at every position? What's a P5 conference champion (outside SEC) look like, and how do we compare?

How many of these guys are busts? Did y'all remember that Chantz came with a higher rating than Nyjalik? (Funny meme about Bissainthe vs. Seymour.)

I did put, "It's not realistic as an on-field lineup"; so, I don't know where some of these folks are coming from.
