He, his staff and team are having fun with their whole vibe. If recruits from the rest of the country see how much fun MAC teams are having playing, practicing etc; it can only be good.

Players want to play for coaches that realize college football is more of a game than a job, that there has to be some enjoyment and fun associated with it.

Having some mild delays getting it posted, here are the players I have ranked #40 through #50 along with the top 5 incoming DBs.

How do I come up with these rankings?

Easy - since all of the rankings have their own minor bias, I do a compilation of all public information I can find, score it in Excel, and then do a aggregate ranking of that data. Taking public information from Rivals, Scout, ESPN, 247 Recruiting, etc., along with adding in other details from published articles, this has become a labor of love to see where the top recruits are expected to make the most impact.
