The first 5 classes of Bronco Mendenhall averaged a @ #42 ranking. The BYU went independent and Bronco's sales pitch wasn't nearly as successful after leaving the MWC.
Under Sitake recruiting has definitely improved, but not (yet) by leaps and bounds. That's OK, because it is going in the right direction. I think that an average of a # 40 recruiting class is about the ceiling for BYU. I think Kalani can get BYU there, but the question is whether we will be able to keep them there. That will have as much to do with the on field product as it does Sitaki's personal recruiting ability.
