The even wilder thing is that that is in combination with having the best class in years. The conventional wisdom in the past might have been "ISU's recruiting sucked so badly, they didnt even get any Texas kids"

He's in the basement guarding his red stapler. My sources say he might find a lot of money, burn down the office and drink mai tai's on the beach (but no salt, no salt for the margarita). I'm just the messenger.

So now that everything is in, how did our class actually end up? I see on 247 we were 50+ in the team rankings today, isn't that about where we normally are? Just curious as I typically don't follow recruiting much.

starting to think our WR corp next year could be deadly, Lazard, Eaton, Jones, Ryen. Paired with hopefully one of the better offensive lines and depth at RB this offense could be potent in 2017

If you look at the roster of WR's we will have next year, those guys will be competing their ass's off for playing time.

Pretty sure ISU Football posted that the class was ranked #40 or so on their Facebook wall. Didn't get to see whose ranking they used.

Have any of the coaches even acknowledged Milton?

"For the second-straight season, Iowa State corralled one of its best recruiting classes in school history, earning a national team ranking of No. 40 by Rivals, the highest by the recruiting service since 2004."

Yea no..rivals#40...Scout#49....247 composite was #51..

Isu classes were normally high 60's and 70's...

Not to mention its highest Avg player rating in over a decade..

5 4-stars????

They take the approach of using every player's highest ranking as his ranking. You could be a 4 star by one service and a 2 star by 5 others, and they'll call you a 4 star.

Even so, I can't find 5 guys rated 4 stars by any service?

Eaton and Josh Johnson are by ESPN. None by Rivals or 247. Tongamoa was by Scout. Not sure what else there is out there though.
