March 11th 2010

What college football team did the best on National Signing Day?

Florida -- Urban Meyer brought in the kind of class that makes a man not retire for 18-hour periods
Texas -- the Longhorns landed two five-star recruits, 17 four-star recruits and several "Friday Night Lights" characters
USC -- with only a short time to commit recruiting violations at Southern Cal, Lane Kiffin did quite well
Auburn -- and I say this from my own knowledge of high school football, not because I'm parroting the massive echo chamber that is recruit rankings. No, sir!
Alabama -- Nick Saban continues to pull in great recruits thanks to all the players who want to spend four years with a prick in central Alabama
Yale -- Do academics mean nothing anymore?
