Guess how many players we've signed in 2012,2013,2014 that scored a 95 or higher in the 247 or 247comp rating?
Before I tell you how many we signed, let me tell you how many Alabama signed. They signed 44.
Bama has signed 44 players in the last 3 years that score a 95 or higher. 95 is considered a mid-high 4*.
Georgia has signed...
18.

And some of those players could be considered better than bamas players. Chris Conley, Bennett, amongst others didn't score that high and I would take over bama underclass man who did based on performance

Not a good time to be complaining about recruiting considering who we picked up lately and who were in the running for and that's just '15.

And?
Bama is unquestionably the best program in America and has been for the last 6 years. They have had a top 2 (and usually #1) recruiting class almost all of those years as well.
Obviously our recruiting numbers aren't what theirs are but guess what, nobody else's is either

The thing that's most amazing about this is how we've averaged a top 10 class over those years. It just shows how far and away Bama's recruiting has been since Saban started winning there. I don't think we should take this as a negative at all, especially with the way things look to be trending for us.

Yep, preaching to the choir from my perspective. The other reality slap is that out of those mostly top 10 UGA recruiting classes, the realized team on the field is significantly less than top 10 due to various forms of attrition. Maybe my view is biased due to being a UGA alumni/long time UGA fan, but it seems like we have a lot more attrition than most teams. I would love to see the before and after data that shows contribution on the field after recruiting; ours has to be among the worst in the nation in terms of high profile players who became busts.
