Why is everyone still so obsessed with the raw team ranking number when the real story is the average player rating? Arizona's class is sitting outside the top 25 in the composite, but our average commit rating is higher than several teams ranked above us. That means we're taking fewer players but hitting on higher-quality prospects, which is a much better long-term strategy for roster construction. The focus on the top 25 list creates a false narrative that misses how a program actually builds depth with four-star talent. For a program in the Big 12, landing a class with a 90+ average rating is a massive win, even if the total points don't stack up against teams taking 25+ guys. When you look at the teams that consistently win, it's about the blue-chip percentage within the class, not just the arbitrary ranking spot. So why does the recruiting industry keep pushing a system that so clearly misrepresents how talent is actually accumulated?
