Where Will This Recruitng Class End Up Ranked Nationally?

Time people got upset again with our anger
Love it and agree. That was the missing piece with this year's team, IMO...they didn't have that edge. They didn't feel disrespected college basketball. That is when 3G's teams have played their best ball. Give them a crappy ranking in the recruiting polls and in the basketball polls. Fuel the fire.
Give in to the hate, boys. Let the hate flow through you. Play angry once again!
Rivals currently ranks WSU @32 with eight players signed.
247 currently ranks WSU @51 with seven players signed, (still no Torres).
"Hank Iba decided he wouldn't play my team anymore. He told me that if he tried to get his team ready to play me, it would upset his team the rest of the season." Gene Johnson, WU Basketball coach, 1928-1933.
Perhaps one day...it'll look like #1. Lot of really good players coming in. Get the 6'-10" guy with all these new parts, the coaching the MTXE....and LOOK OUT!!!!

That valuation of a recruiting class at the end of their careers is really the valuation that matters most. Hopefully Shocker fans will love these guys as much then as they do know. But predicting that requires a pretty high-powered crystal ball. That said I like the chances of this group to do quite well. And that is what is really currently being rated is the potential of this group.

So true, but it is important how good they are during the four (or two, or three) years prior to the end of their career that impacts the Shocker team the most. I too have high hopes that these younsters plus the additions in the next three years will result in a lot of Shocker fans being very happy campers.
"I not sure that I've ever been around a more competitive player or young man than Fred VanVleet. I like to win more than 99.9% of the people in this world, but he may top me." -- Gregg Marshall 12/23/13 :peaceful:
--------------------------------------- Remember when Nancy Pelosi said about Obamacare: "We have to pass it, to find out what's in it".
A physician called into a radio show and said: "That's the definition of a stool sample."
I think that goes without saying. How they do in years 1, 2, 3 and 4 clearly provides the basis as to how the are evaluated when they walk out the door at the end of their collegiate careers?
