over what timeframe is these rankings?
2005-09 recruiting and 2009-2013 performance.
I wonder how it hurts/helps that LSU has had the most underclassman go pro than other universities in skewing these results?

i would think when taking into consideration, it helps as there arent many teams ahead of LSU on the graph and the graph basically shows that they are recruiting and playing at a high level despite the early entrants. remember though, bama had many early entrants too.

If these are the parameters of the graph then it's a joke.
Based off of a player staying for 4 years is an assumption. Which like C said, we have plenty of eligible players leave early.
I'd like to see also how many players contributing in 2013 were in the final recruiting class recorded.
Ole Miss for example is a good measure if you go look at where they are on the graph.

No. Each recruiting rating is an average of 5 years. The 2009 rating is an average of 2005-2009. The 2010 rating is an average of 2006-2010. The 2011 rating is an average of 2007-2011, and so on.
The 2014 recruiting rating would be 7.6, which is about average compared to the ratings that were used (7.4). Currently, the on-field rating for 2014 would be worse than any of the seasons from 2009-2013 (of course, the season's not over yet, so we don't know where exactly it would rate). The on-field ratings also exclude Miles' worst season to date -- 2008.
None of this is exact, which the article states. I think Rivals does a good job with their evaluations, but it's certainly not precise. It's also worth noting -- the Year-by-year on-field ratings ranks LSU #1 in 2011, and Alabama #2.
