This year's ESPN class recruiting rankings by team shows that the top 10 classes of 2016 all have between 3-5 ESPN 100 recruits. If you evaluate the "true recruiting class" of 2016 for BYU, i.e. players coming off missions and players signing in '16 who will actually be on the team in '16, BYU will be adding 4 ESPN 100 recruits to the 2016 team:

Eric Mika (class of '13) ESPN 100 (#28) player grade = 89, 4-star

TJ Haws (class of '14) ESPN 100 (#51) player grade = 86, 4-star

Yoeli Childs (class of '16) ESPN 100 (#50) player grade = 85, 4-star

Payton Dastrup (class of '14) ESPN 100 (#95) player grade = 80, 4-star

Elijah Bryant (transfer, Elon) who held transfer offers from Texas A&M, Miami, Butler, etc. he would be equivalent to at least a 3-star recruit, possibly 4-star.

When you evaluate these 5 players who will be joining BYU in 2016 in comparison to ESPN's top 10 classes of 2016, it is equivalent to being somewhere between the 6 - 10 best class range in the country, with a class pretty similar to Virginia and UConn. It appears by evaluating the below information that if the ESPN recruiting experts rated BYU's "true class" of '16 up against the following group it probably ends up being the #9 or #10 rated class:

1. Kentucky. 6 players... 5 ESPN 100 (four 5-star, one 4-star)

2. Duke. 4 players... 4 ESPN 100 (three 5-star, one 4-star)

3. Michigan State. 4 players... 4 ESPN 100 (two 5-star, two 4-star)
