  1. Jeff says...

    Is Penn State’s class really that bad that they’re behind Illinois, MSU and Notre Dame. I understand that you don’t just rate them based on quantity, but it’s still a little surprising that they’re behind all three.

  2. Tim says...

    Michigan State and Notre Dame are really far ahead of the Nittany Lions.

    Illinois is ahead of them now that the Illini have a better top-end class, with room for more improvement, while Penn State is loaded up on 2-star guys.

  3. Tim says...

    By which I meant “2- and 3- star guys.”
