Really hard to say. Recruiting is a crap shoot.

About one out of four actually contributes significantly. The problem BYU has is it recruits hard-working types who are smart but maybe already at the top of the talent.

The top schools want athletic beasts that the coaches can mold and teach. They like them a bit raw. BYU rarely gets the amazing athlete, Ziggy being an exception.

I don't know if BYU signed any raw athletes that might develop. Bronco never liked primadonnas but wanted the over-achievers. That's okay for walk-ons, but not okay for your starters.
