Fair - but I think heart and culture are in need of a fix as much as the coach. I do think HS “Star” ratings are overblown - a look at the top 25 any given year will show you that. 5 stars often think they’ve achieved all they need by getting that 5th star in HS and never get better in college. Give me 3 stars with a chip on their shoulder.

I’m tired of fearing being labeled a 2%er for saying A&M football provides unacceptable returns on the support of the fans, university and BMAs. A program with the resources of Texas A&M should be top 25 every year.

The hit rate on 5* vs 3* is worlds apart.

There is a reason why the teams with the most stars win the most games, generally.

Most talent Per 247
1. Bama 12-1
2. Georgia 12-1
3. Ohio St 11-1
4. Texas A&M 7-5
5. Clemson 8-4
6. t.u. 12-1
7. Lsu 9-3
8. USC 7-5
9. OU 10-2
10. UO 11-2

Teams with most 3*
1. Texas Tech 5-4
2. Stanford 3-9
3. Cal 6-6
4. Pitt 3-9
5. Indiana 3-9
6. Iowa 10-3
7. West Virginia 8-4
8. Arizona 9-3
9. Baylor 3-9
10. Michigan St 4-8

Does anyone do that? I think that would be the expectation on this board.
