Three-Star Recruit
Maybe someone has already posted this. But I think it would be interesting, every year, for the Husker starters on offense and defense, to put the number of stars each player had back when they were being recruited.
I think this might be a thread worth sticking, or put in the archives, and then updated every year.
I think it would be fun to see for every year the number of stars our starters had back in high school, and to see how many of our 4- and 5-star recruits actually develop into starters.
It would be interesting to see if any trends develop over time. i.e. the guru's are right on the money, or hey, Cali's is doing a better job than the guru's, or hey whole thing is just one big crap shoot.
I do understand that just because a player is good in high school does not mean he will be good in college; but if that premise holds, why get excited about recruiting at all?
No the assumption of us or any team getting a 4 or 5 star H.S. recruit is that they are expected to become good college players.
I am just interested in seeing how things pan out.
