Is what it is. Just have to hope they are coached up just one more .1 to a 5.8 4*.

I think that's achievable.

With Booby as coach and the best facilities in college football,Hogs should land three or four five star recruits every year.

Coaching and facilities help no doubt. But, from everything I've seen proximity to a kid's home is a larger factor. So the fact is there are not a whole of 5* players that close to Fayetteville.

Petrino coaches our plethora of 5.7's up to 5.8 while Alabama rivals guys just bitch and moan in order to get their 5.7's up to 5.8.

Lay off.....back in 1982 when Arky last made the top 10 they didn't have any 5 stars,...proof you don't need em to be elite.

And 31-23 proves you only need 3 stars to beat the hell out of 4's and 5's.

While another semi-troll, their class this year is leaving A LOT to be desired. Petrino peaked in recruiting in 2009.

The 2011 class was the first time ever that we have had a top 20 class on Scout.

This is my point. Future not looking too bright imo..Especially one the SEC defenses get a lock on that O. Smoke and mirrors will be gone.

And when you have to use ECU to "own" us rather than use your own 5* LSU squad, you're finished.

Take a minute to collect yourself.

I realize you guys jerk off to top recruiting rankings but Arkansas never has and never will be an elite recruiting school. With the recruiting base we have it isn't ever going to happen.

So far 3 of Petrino's first 4 recruiting classes have been top 25 which is serviceable if you ask me. With a team stocked with 90% his players recruiting classes we are a preseason top 15 team. I would say if he can just keep getting top 25 classes then we will be fine.

Go to Bama a 5* and leave a 3* or 4*.

"Finally, Alabama wide receiver Julio Jones came in at No. 9 on Feldman's list, which is seven spots lower than where he was coming out of high school."

Go to Arkansas a 3* and leave a 5*.

The 2009 class looks much better. I don't pay attention to scout's rankings. According to rivals...

2009 - #16 nationally, 1 5-star, 8 4-stars...not counting Mallett who might as well be a part of that class and another 5-star

2010 - #49 nationally, 3 4-stars

2011 - #24 nationally, 4 4-stars

And 2012 is not looking good right now.
