In case it helps, here's the fraction of 3* according to Rivals by year: 2005 6/25 24% 2006 3/21 14% 2007 6/29 21% 2008 3/22 14% 2009 4/21 19% 2010 9/20 45% 2011 8/16 50% 2012 9/23 39% 2013 5/9 56% (Andreas Knappe not in database) There is an uptrend, the 2010-2013 classes are consistently higher rated than the earlier classes. The change in coaches may have interrupted recruiting for 2012, the new staff had limited time with this class and it needed to be a big class. We'll see how 2013 plays out but it could be UConn's highest-rated class ever. I would hope for something like 9/16 this year, then a big year on the field and a resolution of some of the conference uncertainty enabling a 15/20 class in 2014.
My sincere hope is that GDF and Spaz are allowed to stick around at BC for another 5 years or so. That should give them enough time to put the nails in the coffin, get the hole dug and get the thing in the ground and permanently burried. If I were a BC poster I would be spending more time contacting BOT members and asking them WTF is gonig on rather than posting on a UCONN board. But, whatever floats your boat.....
