What all of these great recruiting classes have produced is 6 consecutive teams with the ability to win the National Championship. Of course they have won 3. The point is you can't win it without the players, they give you a chance. However, players alone will not get it done, coaching, execution, team chemistry, work ethic, hunger, and luck, among other things are big factors.

Of course you cant win it without the players, the issue is that you dont need elite recruiting classes to have the players necessarily. Oregon has played in a national title game and seriously contended for several others despite usually recruiting outside the national top-20. Mizzu nearly won the SEC last year and had a four year average class rank prior to that in the 30s.

Recruiting classes correlate well with championships, but they arent the end all be all.
