re: Do my eyes deceive me? Must be what a Final 4 does for you.

Rather early to be jumping up and down about that considering UConn is currently 9th and Rutgers is 8th.

Not really. Every team in the top 20 has between 4 and 10 recruits. Sure some will add a few and there will be some shuffling. Almost all classes usually have 5 to 10 recruits based upon returning roster. If you look at this years current rankings they are:

1 - Duke: 8 commits (all 8 have signed or transferred in)
2 - Bama: 7 commits (6 of 7 have signed or transferred in)
3 - Zona: 5 commits (4 of 5 have signed or transferred)
4 - Baylor: 5 commits (all 5 have signed or transferred)
5 - Arkansas: 4 commits (1 of 4 transferred)

Compare that to last year’s final recruiting rankings.

1 - Kentucky: 11 commits
2 - Duke: 5 commits
3 - USC: 5 commits
4 - Baylor: 6 commits
5 - Uconn: 6 commits

It is not rather early in 2024 basketball recruiting. It IS 2024.
