I hate to break it to you Hoosier fans but recruiting classes are only a small element of putting together a championship team. Hell i would know better than all of you being an OSU fan, our football team put together a 5 year period in the 90's where our recruiting class were within the top 5. While we probably fielded, in my opinion, some of the best college football teams ever put together, we have no national chamiponships to testify to the superiority of our classes. Why? well talk to any Buckeye fan about John Cooper and see how highly they talk of him.

I think you have a better chance of winning national championships with good team chemistry, and superior coaching than you do with landing superior recruiting classes year after year.
