Pennsylvania Duck Moderator No. 1 Share Posted January 16, 2023 The Hotline asked Brandon Huffman, the Washington-based national recruiting editor for 247Sports, to offer a few projections for the Pac-12 with the high school juniors who will sign letters of intent in the winter of 2023-24. -- Will the intra-conference dynamics change with USC and UCLA bound for the Big Ten? -- Will resurgent Washington challenge Oregon for Pac-12 supremacy? -- How will the Deion Sanders era at Colorado change the balance of power? Read what Huffman has to say below: Pac-12 recruiting: Oregon rolls, Utah thrives and other fearless forecasts for 2023-24 WWW.KSL.COM Analyst Brandon Huffman offered his predictions for the Pac-12 next winter.

lownslowav8r No. 2 Share Posted January 16, 2023 2. USC flourishes "That said, I think USC's class will be rated higher than Oregon's. But because the Trojans will be headed to the Big Ten in the summer of '24, they won't have the highest-ranked class in the Pac-12. Instead, it will be absorbed by the Big Ten." Why? Because they are USC. So far Oregon has matched every recruiting move USC has made and at times exceeded theirs (e.g., nine 4/5* DL/End high school recruits vs one for USC). One nice thing about USC moving out is not having to listen to the media’s blind adoration of USC nearly as much. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Administrator No. 3 Share Posted January 16, 2023 That is a poorly written "blah-blah" article that tells us nothing beyond the obvious. And he confuses us--is he referring at times to the '23 class or the '24 class? Regardless...USC has to win one of them? 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
idontrollonshobbas No. 4 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I find 247sports recruiting rankings to be geared mainly to selling subscriptions, not objectively rating prospects. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
