That says a lot about the history of the two schools and the games. People have told me that the two schools are very similar.

best chris class country finished life passing people ranked recruiting starts takes won
I would say if you're ranked No. 1, you better be really good, because it takes on a life of its own. Everyone complained that we had the best recruiting class in country but we only won 10 games.

I felt like we had a great spring. You are not sure how young people will respond after the excitement we had on January 4.

It's important in recruiting. A lot of these young people and their parents have a dream to play in the NFL. To some families, it's not that important, but I would say very few players who go to Texas or Ohio State don't have that dream.
