I don’t have the previous years but I feel like gophers are usually in the 40s or slightly lower in this. PJ coaches them up.

I do think the overall talent level has gone up, but it needs to continue to do so.

Currently, the 26 class is ranked 25th in the country with five composite 4* commitments. It's composite score is higher than last year's combined recruiting and transfer score assuming the 24 recruits sign in December. Fleck has done a terrific job of recruiting better players year after year as he said he would.

Would be interesting to see what these ratings would look like if they replaced recruit rankings with transfer rankings for all the guys that have transferred (which at this point would be a lot of them). That would be a slightly better way of judging overall roster talent since it would account for the development of guys as opposed to what the recruiting sites thought of them coming out of high school.
