Notre Dame is hiding behind Michigan.

According to this chart,

Alabama is best at utilizing top talent.
Kansas sucks at recruiting and football.
Iowa does the most with the least
And a lot of teams can't be elite with Top 10 or 20 talent.
 
Also, all that averaged over 11 wins averaged Top 10 recruiting.

Kansas is likely to climb that chart at the fastest rate if they can keep Leipold.
 
:yo: to Wisconsin, Utah, Oklahoma State, Iowa, NC State, Pitt, Minnesota, K-State and others that are just outside that top green circle on the right. Well done.

Well... that's one perk of starting from the bottom I suppose. You can rise quickly if you get your shit together
 
Nebraska the worst of teams averaging top 30 classes

A bit surprised they recruited so well the past decade
 
Wake Forest averaging bowl eligible with one of the worst recruiting classes is pretty good.
Dave Clawson is doing one hell of a job at The Smallest P5 school in CFB

This is the least surprising thing in the world. It will be interesting to see what happens when Bama drops down into the tOSU, UGA, Clemson range.

Also, the early years of those numbers is doing some heavy lifting for Clemson.

The two groups below the Elite group are the ones that are going to really get a lift out of the CFP-12 format. Before they would have been eliminated simply due to the people above them. If we get an "Cinderella" runs, it will come out of that group.

The far right of the "Loses with more talent" group are going to be your 8-12 teams that might win one game every now and again.
 
Not the least bit surprised. ND had elevated itself from the early 2000’s to be good, but not elite and that’s pretty much entirely because their recruiting has been good, but not elite.
