TLDR: it's a good class.
The rivals average stars (3.81) is the highest for AU in the 23 seasons they’ve tracked it. It’s also slightly above uat’s average this year. First time we've bested them in average stars since 2007.
It's our first time back in the Rivals top 10 recruiting ranks since 2016.
The composite score for AU of 91.99 is the highest AU has ever had since they started tracking it in 2010.
This may be too wonky, but the composite score is not only the highest, the distance between it and the 2nd highest composite score by AU, is the largest gap in the list – meaning AU not only bested their previous highest score, they beat it by the largest margin of any of the previous scores. Again, may be too pointy-headed for most to appreciate. But it’s a sign of big momentum.
Two final things to note:

Two final things to note:
- The class may not be finished, and if RW were to flip, all of these numbers go up.
- It’s way too early, but 2025 looks even better.
