I do not think the year 3 thing is very accurate. Recruiting rankings started when? Early 2000's? Then you have around 8-9 teams to look at that you count 3 years out from their NC and see how they did. That is too small of a sample size IMO. And there are way too many variables in that small of a sample size as well (like repeat champions during the 3 years, playing time available, etc).
When you have 20 years of data, then you have a sample size for this. Common sense says a bump 3 years later is unlikely to be greater than a bump 1 or 2 years later, all else being equal.
I tend to agree with most of that.
The way I see it, the perceived "NC bump" is improperly assigned to the actual winning of the NC when it should be assigned to the exceptional player development necessary to win that NC. Kids care more about getting better as football players and getting to the NFL than they do about winning an NC. If they win one, then cool, but it is a secondary concern with most kids.

Year 3? I'm not arguing either way, but how is it then?
I really don't know the answer to this, nor do I subscribe to 3 years as the accurate time frame for a bump. I Was only asking a fellow Aubie to provide more to his dissenting posts, rather then the hit and run's he usually does.

Why do I need to provide anything more? I did not state the original premise of 3rd year bump, so why do I carry any burden of proof?

You don't, that is why I said I was only asking. You are more then welcome to ignore the request. Which is what I would expect anyway.

This thread needs to be renamed "longest" instead of "best" or maybe just take "recruiting thread" out.

The biggest title bump comes in year 3 anyways.
I like how yall keep trying to perpetuate this myth.
The way information gets out now, the bump may actually be the February immediately after you win it.
Sunshine pumping time: Prior to Chiz's arrival the average Rivals rating for Auburn classes from 2003 to 2008 was 13.66 (11,21,13,10,7,20), since Chiz arrived his first three classes average rank is 10. (19,4,7). Auburn has commitments from 9 4 star player this year and the class is currently ranked 20th, has filled needs, is well balanced and should improve its ranking even with 3 star players. Chiz has clearly elevated our recruiting.
It should be noted that Chiz's average includes his first year (19th) which is only partial his class. As an example, Saban's first class was ranked 10th.

You ever see the ending of The Dark Knight? "Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight."
I am a Dark Knight. I fill a very important role of putting shite straight to the point and conveying reality instead of glossing everything over. I tell people off when they post something incredibly stupid and/or wrong; which on that forum was a lot of the time. It really is a mandatory service.

Yeah you and Brannigan will get along just fine. As I said you have good unbiased info but come off as condescending when posting.
Brannigan love the JR quote. That's some badass stuff
