this shows USC has really under-achieved for the insane amount of tallent they have.

Also with the exception of Georgia all of the top ten in recruiting have a national title (or 2 for LSU)in the past 10 years

1 USC NC 2004
2 Florida NC 2006
3 LSU NC 2003 & 2007 (soon to be 2008)
4 Oklahoma NC 2000
5 Texas NC 2005
6 Georgia NC Who knows

this ranking is a good argument for defending their star rankings. the top ranking teams are the ones playing in and winning national titles. guess stars actually matter on recruits

Very well said, and or the other possibility is that thier recruits are over rated due to more recruiting services have talent evaluators in CA than the SouthEast per capita and per talent.
Thus, recruiting agencies are more inclined to pump up local guys in Ca, than to get on a plane which cost money vs. drive to a local High School.

And, it very well may be combination of both.

Bottom-line, I agree...they continue to underachieve.
