It was ranked high because there were 6 4* players in the class. Lock and Beckner are the only two that have done anything. None of the 3 4* RBs are on the roster and the 4* OL isn't on the two deep. 5 other players in the class are no longer on the roster either.

I disagree that's why it was ranked that way. Most of that ranking came from 2 of the 4*'s, Lock and TBJ. Strong didn't even qualify.

The class itself looks pretty good honestly.

Contributing players from 2015:

Emanuel Hall looks pretty good wouldn't you say?
Terez Hall looks to be our best LB
Terry Beckner Jr looks to be our best DT
Tyler Howell was a starter till recently (still don't know the reason for this)
Jonathan Johnson has been a good WR in the slot
Marcell Frazier is our best DE
Perkins is a starting Safety
Corey Fatony has been the MVP
and of course Drew Lock

2015 class has been very adequate. Every class has attrition and guys who don't qualify or get booted.

The problem is the 2014 Class:
28 Commits

Witter
Wilson
Lee
Cheadle
Pendleton
Blanton

Only 6 guys who see the field

That was the class that tanked this team.

Odom's 16/17 classes are too early to tell, a lot are getting snaps, but a lot of them look underwhelming and lacking speed/talent/strength, what I would expect from classes that barely broke the top 50.

Odom's defensive recruits have been pretty underwhelming.
