When it comes to recruiting and stars, I have always viewed it as 5 stars = most ready to play day 1. 2 stars = most development / growth time needed.
Ceiling = 30% natural ability 70% work ethic and desire.
I believe this is true across the board as far as positions go, but admittedly a little less true with greater skill positions.
So when I see a team like Iowa getting 3 star guys, I don't sweat it much. What it means to me is that there are teams that are going to be deeper than us and more likely to have a couple difference makers that we don't.
We can't sustain a run of seasons like last year and take the next step without getting a few of those guys and staying healthy. But we can do very well and continue to climb.
