What was Michigan’s (and Washington’s) blue chip ratio last season?

Serious question

Florida on that list but it's not taking coaching into account because we have a sun belt coach

Probably not high, but if you want consistent sustainable success you gotta get a certain level of talent, but with everything going on i think those numbers will drop, you can’t hoard talent anymore especially with everyone getting a check, and more teams getting a chance for a playoff run

Florida has been bad for 15 years. Tennessee, like close to 20.

But we find a way to beat them almost every year no matter how bad we suck.

Both teams had seasoned and experienced players, which can counteract bluechip athletic ability to a degree.

Yeah they essentially grew into a top 100 kid, mixed in with already blue chip kids

And in Michigan's case, they were in the same system for a few years under Harbaugh which really helps development.

Yall was just good with mullen

Yall was just good with mullen

ehh

not really.

We weren't total trash the entire mullen era (had a spark when he started but ended up garbage) but we really won nothing of significance and was never considered a serious threat by elite teams.

Basically under Mullen we had a good qb for a year and a half (Kyle Trask). With Trask Mullen's team was pretty good, but without him we were either mid (2018-first few games of 2019 under Franks) or terrible (Emory Jones).
