Nothing wrong with that at all. The problem is that being ranked 35th is good enough for about 10th or 11th in the conference.
I don't think that either. There will be enough players that are 4 stars or coached up that will cross over from class to class that will result in higher rankings every 2 to 3 years.
But the question was about the long term. And the answer to that is no. Unless he recruits better the talent gap will continue to widen. Slowly those higher rankings will drop.....

It's looking like Mullen has botched this year's class, at least what it should have been.
Three reasons:
1. Mullen doesn't play the recruiting game. He doesn't like this part of college football.
2. Constant staff shake ups. It took a real toll this year.
3. Having his name in other job searches was effectively used against him by competing programs.
We'll see how it ends up tomorrow, but it's not looking like certain immediate needs are going to be met in this class. Particularly on the DL. But there are some very talented players in this class. The numbers aren't there.
