The 2011 class will be our first in the Big 10. Shouldn't you be comparing this to the Big 10 schools?
I should be but I haven't switched into Big 10 mode yet. Quite honestly . . . I haven't hardly thought about the switch. I've been so Big 12 focused for so long that it's not going to be an easy transition.
Also . . . I don't know who would be our recruiting competition in the Big 10. It probably is at least partially dependent on how the divisions are broken down. I'd guess Iowa might be a good comparison but I really don't know what to think. I assume OSU and PSU are probably like the OU and UT of the conference in that NU probably will usually be beneath them in class rankings.
In short, I wouldn't know where to begin with that comparison.
Edit: Actually, I just glanced at the current commit lists in the Big 10. OSU is the clear leader. Nebraska is second by a wide, wide, margin. And then there is everyone else. PSU only has 1 commit. Michigan only has a handful. Like I said, this will take some getting used to.
