Colorado signed 2 five stars following a 1-11 season. That is the same amount that Colorado signed over the prior 22 years (aka since ratings were out). Marcus Houston in 2000 was from Colorado and ultimately transferred to Colorado State. Darrell Scott in 2008 had a relative on the team and left after the relative transferred.

Colorado signed 7 four stars this year, which is the most since 2002 following a 10-3 season with a Big 12 Championship and Fiesta Bowl appearance.

If Deion has any sort of success, he will sign a LOT more four and five stars than Colorado has historically. I'm not sure how that will translate to wins/losses or his relationship with Colorado's administration and donors, but I'm very sure "stars get you fired."
