Increase in Sky's the Limit recruits? Topic

With one of my D1 team's, I had 4 recruits come up as "Sky's the Limit", all in one recruting season.  In my previous 150 or so seasons, only maybe 6 or 7 guys in total -- signed them all. I thought this was weird and just wondering if any others have noticed an increase.

Note: Decided to only sign 3 of them as one of them is not needed due to position, current depth and his current ratings. The 3 I did sign are high level recruits. 3 of the 4 are within 50 miles of the campus.

That's impressive- maybe it is just your lucky year. I've only seen 2 ever, across 35-40 seasons.

It seems to be less than a 1% chance, so enjoy it while you can.

at DI i've seen 6 total, signed 5 of them and lost one late in the process.
at DIAA i've seen 3 total and signed none of them, a DI school always found them late and snagged em.
at DII i've seen 14 total and signed 13 of them.

haven't seen one for about 10 seasons now that i can remember. still, 4 in one fail swoop is sick you lucky mofo.

most of the STL's i've signed were RB & LB. had a STL kicker once(dude won me a NC on a late FG). in fact 75% of the STL's i saw were with my Tusculum team in Bryant.

The four were a RB, WR, DL and TE. I chose to pass on the TE.

I have that team now and in 4 seasons I haven't seen any.

I've found 6 in the past 6 seasons at 3 different teams.  Only signed 3 of them... it seems like they get pretty popular pretty quickly.

I've seen 2 in 77 seasons. If I ran across more than that I don't remember them.
