Blue chip ratio is out for 2023 ...

Blue chip ratio is a good way to look at teams with depth but one way to overcome lack of depth is special QB play

HOW HAS THIS STAT PERFORMED IN THE PAST?
  • In 2022, Georgia took home the title in dominant fashion with a 77% ratio.
  • In 2021, Georgia had an 80 percent BCR and won it all, beating the No. 1 BCR team Alabama in the title game. Three of the four playoff teams were BCR teams as Cincinnati was the first crasher since 2017.
  • In 2020, Alabama had an 83 percent BCR and won it all. All four Playoff teams were BCR schools.
  • In 2019, LSU won it with a 64 percent BCR, and all four Playoff teams were BCR schools. (Burrow)
  • Clemson, with a 61 percent mark, took it home in 2018. And all four Playoff teams were BCR schools. (Lawerence)
  • Alabama won it all in 2017 with an incredible 80 percent mark.
  • Clemson took home the title in 2016 after signing 52 percent blue chips in the 2013-16 classes. (Watson)
  • In 2015, Alabama had a 77 percent mark.
  • In 2014, it was Ohio State at 68 percent.
  • In 2013, Florida State was at 53 percent. (Winston)
  • In 2012, Alabama was at 71 percent
  • ... just as Bama was in 2011.
2015 Clemson right under 50% (Watson)
2010 Auburn 50% (Newton)
 
Per the ratio, these are the only teams capable of winning this year's CFP. Being on the list doesn't mean you will win it, but not being on the list means you can't win it.

Wisconsin has decided since they have no chance to play for a natty, there is no reason to play at all. They have canceled their season.

Thank goodness for Ryan Day. Without him that's 31% difference in blue chip recruits would make a difference.

What is a player's rating/ranking have to be to be considered blue chip?
 
Texas being at 70% while averaging a 7-5 record in that timeframe is humorous.
coaching matters..unless you can get to that 80% or better echelon where it's hard for a coach to even mess that up

Just signing with one of those teams listed makes them blue chip. They don’t have to perform that well, just sign.

I dont disagree at all that coaching matters. But dude there was 2 teams on your schedule every year that made this list. Yet still you could only get 7 W’s? The definition of under achieving.

maybe that's why they had zero draft picks in '22? So they chose the wrong kids, or was it the coaches?

Could be that Texas recruits lately have been overrated. For as many 4 and 5* kids that state produces, there haven't been many that have translated into impact college players. Could also be because a lot of those kids chose UT and A&M, and those programs have greatly underachieved relative to the talent they presumably have.

I too think a lot of our kids are are overrated to a degree. Mainly because they are closer to being maxed out developmentally by the time they enter college. jmo

if you look deeper in those classes.. when they got high classes it was because of quantity.. very few top 100 players but would stack up on the 150-300 players who at that point are a coin flip. Also they feasted on tweeners who didn't pan out. They also didn't do much of the Juco route like some other schools..which is a shame because when we did do it, we had some good players.

Was that the year Jim Jeffcoats kid came out? I was shocked he didn’t get drafted
