Nebraska is not a top 5 team though (though they think they are).
Alabama is mad.

Also, while talent is important, most people overly focus on top line talent when the talent floor and shoring up weak links is more important. Elite schools recruit so many good players that the talent floor usually gets raised my mass action. But that doesn’t always happen as evidenced by teams with elite talent falling flat due to weak links.
You can also build a highly competitive team purely through smart roster construction
Let's contrast two quotes from football Coaches and contrast Them.
Current IU Football Coach Curt Cignetti 'Google Me, I Win."
Former College Football Coach and current Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville. "Google Me, I Whine."

I don't get what we did that any other school didn't do. Oh, wait, never mind. It's because we didn't do anything anyone else didn't do.
What we did is end up in a place where we "don't belong" and that may mean that some teams who "do belong" may get left out.
%$#^ the SEC.
As an aside - Wake Forest passed on Rourke. He had a visit scheduled and they canceled it.
This guy is a total idiot. Indiana hired a new coach and did what he had to do. Recruited players to come to Indiana with a vision of winning and developing players. The same thing all school try to do.
This is complete SEC BS.

On3 ranking of the portal transfer classes. We're 10th. But by 'adjusted NIL value' looks like we're about 26th out of the first page of 50 teams. On players about 3 stars, about the same.

I guess Auburn and Alabama must be little sisters of the poor to not be able to do 26th.
Cig didn't pull a Deion and run his guys off the first year either, on purpose, and then take a massive amount his second year (I assume we won't do 42 players...) . For Cig the guys pretty much went looking without being pushed out. Although he was clear some were not asked back.
I agree with Tuberville on some of his points, but wasn't he a big time coach with influence in the NCAA football world a long time when players were only paid under the table? In other words he played a role in creating this mess?

So when is bringing in zero star guys (out of high school) buying a team? I doubt any SEC team would’ve taken any of them. And frankly, 13 of those guys just followed their former coach to IU. Athletes have been following their coach to his new program for decades.
