What grade would you give the Gophers 2019 football recruiting class?
A is for top 25 right now. Gave it a B. If Williams signs, B+

Undecided...I'll wait.
Last year 2nd in B1G West. This year 4th. Without Willams...not good.
Given the Gophers were 5-7 last year and 6-6 this year and still got this talented of a group is impressive to me. Plus, positions of need were addressed very well with this 2019 group. I give them an A based on those parameters. Seems like Top 25 ranked teams frequently get Top 25 recruiting classes but I feel like Minnesota, who is not a Top 40 ranked team, outperformed this recruiting cycle.
C. Our expectations have fallen so low after years of horrible teams. This is a very average recruiting class for a B1G team. It's good for us, but if we want to compete for B1G championships and national titles well we'll need to do better.

We will get better. Unfortunately can't happen overnight like you could in basketball by signing 3 great players. A football team has to recruit many more players every year to be successful. No, this is a solid B and I'm very happy with it. As we all know we really won't know how we did until about 4 years out. Perhaps it will be a A+ class in the end.

What is our rank within our conference? A solid B would be top 5. An A would be top 2-3. Again that's just my opinion. Your expectations are lower than mine, that's fine.

You guys can keep railing on me but look where we are in the B1G. Average, C is average. You guys want and accept average, that's fine I don't. You know what they say about the common man.

Agree. This year is ranked lower than last year within the conference and the West even with Williams. Thus, on paper, we are gaining ground on only past Gopher teams and losing ground within the conference.
FWIW...I didn't vote but with Williams C+/B-. Without him, I have no grade as the extra scholly could be a 5 star or 2 star punter.
So you're giving an "incomplete"?
