USC, Arizona State can you back off a little and let my UNLV get some peeps?!

Season 125 recruiting:
Out west it looks like USC & Arizona State are snagging the talent. Down southwest it looks like Texas is having easy pickings along with LSU. Down South it looks like Alabama and Tennessee are having war on the Bible Belt talent. Along with Florida and Miami for Floridas crop. Over east is where things get mixed. You have Penn, Temple, Ohio State attacking. Up North, Notre Dame, Michigan seem to have a hold on things.

Damn elites taking all the good players. Should have elected Bernie Sanders so we could all have a good player or two.

For a half a second I was going to take the Temple job. It had better players and recruits. But thats not why I came back to GD. It looks like other coaches passed on them too because they are a sim and are far from in the mix in the east.

Where you need to turn your attention is out west. The Oregon State Beavers are picking up some great recruits and are still in the mix with a few more. Not sure who's coaching that team but my lawd does he have them chugging along in the right direction.

Can someone explain to me why Temple is a quality job? In real life it doesn't appear to be.

There are SOOOO many players within your 150 it is ridiculous. For all those players you really only have to battle Rutgers and PSU for the most part.

You have to remember that this is a game and not real life. For example, Temple, Rutgers and UConn are all better jobs than Oregon, Ole Miss and Michigan St.

Has anyone seen the crop Michigan is bringing in? They scooped up the #1 and #2 Wr's, #1 and #2 OL, and #1 Te. Not to mention, every other recruit seems to be 4 Star athletes. I have never seen a recruit class as good as this before!

Stud class, but the best class I have ever seen was hauled in by Notre Dame in Wilkinson a few seasons ago.

Well, I did some comparing.
Notre Dame in Wilkinson did have amazing classes (like you said) in seasons 121 and 122 but NOT as good as Michigan's in Leahy for season 125.
In fact, this Michigan class is the highest rated in Leahy history(going back to season 95) When GUESS was revamped.

Leahy - Michigan - Season 125 - 93.04 Relative Value - 76.82 Average recruit rating - 4 ***** recruits - 7 **** recruits
Wilkinson - Notre Dame - Season 122 - 90.97 Relative Value - 75.44 Average recruit rating - 4 ***** recruits - 5 **** recruits
Wilkinson - Notre Dame - Season 121 - 90.79 Relative Value - 76.64 Average recruit rating - 3 ***** recruits - 2 **** recruits

I am not sure I could hang with Tennessee this season. PSU is pretty tough as well. I know USC has a softer schedule this season but I think they are in the final season of a monster recruit class from a few years back.
