We see a strong correlation between # of 5* recruits and teams winning at the college level. What 5* recruits in the SEC have won NC's with their teams? Go back as far as you want.

Cam Newton HS

Looks like Cam was a 5* composite out of HS, but 4* out of Blinn.

I can't find Tee Martin's recruiting profile. Anybody know what he was?

Tua was a 5* and won it in 2017.
Tim Tebow was a 5* on Scout at least and won the title in 2008.
Cam Newton was a 5* when he committed to Florida and won it in 2010
Jameis Winston, won it in 2013

Those are the first few that come to mind.

Tua - 2017
Cam - 2010
Tebow - 2006/2008

Past that recruiting rankings start get a little dicey since you're talking about guys who were recruits from the 90s. Were Tee Martin or Danny Weurffel considered 5* recruits? No way Matt Mauck or Jay Barker were. Jason Campbell might have been if we want to acknowledge Auburn's 2004 Moral Championship.

Watson was a 4* on 247 composite; was he a 5* on one of the services?

Lawrence was definitely a 5* champ as well.

I thought I remembered him being a 4* but it looks like he was a 247 5* composite. Still, no NC so it's a moot point.

Tua Tagovailoa
Cam Newton (just not with his original team)
Tim Tebow
Chris Leak (Rivals had him as a 4 star, 247 had him as a 5 star).

Seems like a pretty high correlation. Several who weren't 5* were damn close.

You are right. 5* Rivals, 4* 247 composite.

247 has Vince Young as the highest rated player of all time. IDK if that’s with the gift of hindsight be he was a big time recruit.

They also have a Chris Leak as a 5 star
