Ah another post about stars dont matter but usually the top 5 in college football usually starts with the top 5 in the recruiting rankings. Que the Justin Jefferson reference that everyone likes to point to not being a 4 or 5 star but forget about the 70% of the 3 stars that never get a start in their career at top fbs schools.
With the portal now a lot of the 3 stars that used to become starters as Jr's and Sr's at the school they originally signed with are leaving making it more difficult. So even more important now to get 5 star talent like campbell and perkins not 3 or 4 year projects.

I’m not saying there’s no correlation with the top ranked teams and on field performance. There are a lot of supporting players the help elevate the team, but it’s usually one or two guys that are extra special. For us it was Joe, Chase, Jetts, but they were not all in the same recruiting class. There is no reason to freak out if we miss on one player. There a chance said player could be a breakout star, but the odds are he will be a regular Joe. Many 5* simply don’t pan out for a variety of reasons. It’s funny A&M had such a great class last year, but we pulled the best player in the State of Texas and one time A&M recruit in Harold Perkins.
