Exactly. I saw on Twitter that the new signing had moved the Illini’s ranking for 2021 up one spot and out of the cellar. That got me wondering how this class (Lovie’s last) compared to his other classes, which led me to Lovie’s highest average recruit rating for a class. I like most if not all people on here expect recruiting under BB to improve and my question was meant to learn how quickly it would be before we saw that improvement. So what do people think is a reasonable expectation for “BB’s first real class” — fully understanding and I thought clearly indicating that 2021 class was not a class BB should be judged upon. I mentioned the highest average recruit rating that a Lovie class had to get an indication how steep the improvement in recruiting would be under BB, or would it take several years to see that improvement based upon how low recruiting had sunk under Lovie. Believe me I was not holding up Lovie’s “best class” as some beacon of success.
I honestly thought all this was pretty clear from my original post and the follow up, and, indeed, most of the subsequent posts seemed to understand what I was asking. I apologize if some thought I was asking about bank robberies and hotel rooms.
