thats weird because rivals has tulsa as the 71st cl**** in the country narrowly trailing OSU by merely 37 teams. But I understand where you are coming from, having the 71st cl**** in the country is a big step out of mediocrity.

Tulsa and Oklahoma finished almost identical on paper last year. Oklahoma scored more points than Tulsa but they also gave up more ppg on defense. I had OU #15 and Tulsa #21 in my final rankings. IMO, Bill Blankenship did a better job coaching his lower recruiting cl**** of mostly Oklahoma kids than Bob did coaching his higher ranked out of state recruiting cl****. Tulsa has had some pretty good football teams since joining conference USA. Problem is that every time they have a really good coach, he ends up coaching at a big name school and they have to start all over again.
I'm one who doesn't follow recruiting much and thinks that playing players with heart makes up for lack of big name talent. Sure, you have to have good players but Tulsa seems to always do pretty well with OU and Texas rejects. A lot of high ranked players get a big head and think all they have to do is show up and out talent other players while show boating for NFL scouts while 2 and 3 star players give it everything they've got to try and win football games.
Colin Kaepernick wasn't recruited by anyone. He was a three sport high school player with a promising baseball career that wanted to play football. The University of Nevada offered him after seeing him play a high school basketball game but knew he would probably opt for a MLB career. Even when he was setting records at Nevada, he got no respect from most fans. San Francisco traded up to take him early in the 2nd round and after Smith went down in his second season, he was a PI no call from leading his team to a superbowl championship after being down 22 points in the 3rd quarter.

Whats the deal on Rob Boyd the Olineman from Vian? Commited to Tulsa. Rated 4 stars, had a **** offer list. Is he just overated or what? http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/footbal...ob-Boyd-128580
It has no merit in an environment of "Just Kidding" lol
Tulsa recruitting cl**** is nice for their level, but still several steps behind OSU and OU.
It's a toss up whether OU or OSU had a better recruitting cl****. OSU landed talent in the receiver core (multiplying strength instead of filling weaknesses) and thus I'd say OU did very very very very slightly better. I don't think the gap is as wide as Rivals thinks, but I do agree that the gap between OSU and Tulsa is gigantic. Sooner**** is in dream world if he thinks Tulsa had the better recruiting cl**** of the three.
