I didn't take the time to tally the 247 ratings. From @fencejumpers perspective (no. of offers) it's pretty obvious we have experienced an upswing in RB recruiting under Fleck. We may have missed out on one of the best prospects in Nolan Edmonds (16 offers) due to his medical retirement. We should appreciate "Grandpa" Rodney Smith all the more, looking bzck at his 2* rating and his tremendous production despite 2 major injuries/rehab.
I look forward to a big next 2 years from Mo, future production from Potts and Wiley, and hopefully tantalizing results down the road from K. Thomas and M. Irving. I'm also not ruling out Jason Williamson and Bryce Williams from productive roles either. It should be a crowded, deep and competitive RB room for the next few years, which, paired with a talented passing attack, should make for an effective, high-scoring and fun to watch Gopher offense.
