Quote:Rivals.com National and ACC Recruiter of the Year
BRENT VENABLES, Clemson

Biggest gets: Five-star linebacker Tre Lamar, five-star linebacker Rahshaun Smith, four-star defensive end Xavier Kelly, four-star cornerback Trayvon Mullen

Buzz: Clemson’s defensive coordinator is Rivals.com’s Recruiter of the Year for the 2016 class after landing five-stars Tre Lamar and Rahshaun Smith and assisting fellow assistant Robbie Caldwell on five-star Dexter Lawrence. He also used his ties in Kansas to land two of the Sunflower State’s top three prospects in Xavier Kelly and three-star safety Isaiah Simmons, while being the lead recruiter on four-star Trayvon Mullen, three-star linebacker Jamie Skalski and others.

Quote:TIM BREWSTER, FSU

Biggest gets: Four-star tight end Naseir Upshur, four-star quarterback Malik Henry, four-star running back Amir Rasul, four-star linebacker Dontavious Jackson

Buzz: Florida State nearly pulled out its first team recruiting title, falling less than 100 points shy of Alabama and finishing second. Brewster expanded the Seminoles’ recruiting footprint by landing prospects from both coasts and getting into Texas as well. That Lone Star State pick up was a big one on Signing Day, getting Rivals250 linebacker Dontavious Jackson despite strong competition from Alabama and Texas.

Quote:JEFF SCOTT, WR, Clemson

Biggest gets: Four-star wide receiver T.J. Chase, four-star running back Tavien Feaster, four-star wide receiver Diondre Overton, four-star wide receiver Cornell Powell

Buzz: Scott is Clemson’s wide receivers coach, but he ends up being a factor in most of their offensive targets. This year he helped the Tigers roll up the nation’s No. 5 ranked recruiting class by landing several four-star skill position prospects. He kept Rivals250 running back Tavien Feaster in-state, then went into neighboring North Carolina for a pair of four-stars and down into Florida for Rivals250 wide receiver T.J. Chase.

Quote:RICK TRICKETT, Florida State

Biggest gets: Four-star offensive guard Landon Dickerson, four-star offensive tackle Mike Arnold, four-star offensive tackle Josh Ball, four-star offensive tackle Jauan Williams, four-star athlete Carlos Becker

Buzz: Florida State’s offensive line coach was critical in signing the Seminoles No. 2 ranked class in 2016. Six offensive linemen set the foundation for the class and Trickett was the lead recruiter on all, including Landon Dickerson, a Rivals100 offensive guard who announced his decision on Signing Day.

“Rick Trickett really knocked it out of the park. This is the best offensive line class they have had in the history of Florida State,” said Warchant.com’s Michael Langston.

Swinney has made great hiring decisions since his first mistake of tagging Billy Napier as the OC. Scott has turned out to be a great position coach and I love the way he basically groomed Scott and Elliot to be OC from the moment Morris was hired. Continuity, seamless transition.

Here's an article on reranking the 2013 class. Look at Tennessee jumping from 36 to 7 and Iowa jumping from 51 to 9. While these rankings are important, they are far from accurate.

Yet amazingly the two teams that recruit the best have won the last five ACC titles.

Coincidence? I think not.


Who was the last team to win a national title who had average recruiting classes?


Whistle past the graveyard all you want but recruiting matters, and it matters a lot.

Perhaps you were to busy whistling your own tired toon & missed the part were I said that it was important. All I said is that it's not accurate, how is that even debatable?

Tim Brewster was originally "hired" by Mack Brown as a volunteer coach in 1898 and stayed in Chapel Hill until he left with Brown to go to Texas.
Brewster still has a home in Chapel Hill.
