I think you're much too lenient on this class. My ranking is above in the quote.

I should have mentioned, my rankings have more to do with how they performed for Iowa St, not necessarily how they compare to the nation's 4 & 5 star recruits.

For example, KCM is one of the better safetys that's been at Iowa St, so he was 5 star.
The no stars were guys that never made it, or never played a down.

Ahh makes much more sense now. Either way its incredible the amount of players that didn't even see the field or did not pan out for us. Hoping 4 years down the road we are able to rerank Campbell's class much more favorably.

I'm hoping we win so many games that we are discussing bowl game performance and all the 3/4 stars that are being recruited / signed leading to top 25 classes.

Shawn Curtis is one that sticks out to me. I thought him and Campos were gonna be 3 year starters at the tackle positions.

It would be interesting to see 2012 and 2011 revisited in comparison.

I would agree with your with the exception of moving JD up. He looked really good last year until he got hurt

Give a listen to the latest CyCast with John Walters. He interviews JD about wearing #58 in honor of Cutis Bray next year. Kid sounds like a humble, hardworking, smart guy. I agree he was a solid contributor last year and look forward to seeing what he can do in the coming year.

The number of OL in the 0-2 range is pretty telling....
