Stars matter, recruiting rankings of 2020 1st rounders

Reading an analysis of star rankings in the Athletic there is this statement in final thoughts after the rankings:
"• LSU had five players taken in the first round, and Chaisson (a Texan) was the only one of the five who was a top-250 recruit. LSU almost always signs a top-10 class, but the coaches clearly have excelled in the development phase as well."
Then, in the reader comments, a reader asks a question regarding which program recruits well and achieves the least with its talent.....AKA somewhere in Texas:
"Nice piece Ari. Would love to see what schools are the WORST at converting four/five star prospects to high draft picks, but I imagine that article would read something like: “Uh, Tennessee, you happy?”"
The author, Ari Wasserman, responds: "Off the top of my head, I'd say it's Texas A&M in a runaway. USC also in the conversation."
LMAO.
