Oh yeah, well into the bottom 1/3.
In 2009 coming off a BCS bowl win the recruiting rankings were the same 7th according to Rivals and 10th according to scout.
So if one reputable recruiting service puts you close to the bottom 1/3 and another reputable recruiting service puts you well into the bottom 1/3. Then maybe just maybe Utah would be consistently in the bottom 1/3 of Pac-10 recruiting.
