Putting more players in the NFL may not mean Utah had a better recruiting class, but it is a heck of a lot more important than rivals giving their opinion. It's hilarious that you come in here with "rivals says this year's recruiting class is worse than last year's, therefore it must be true, and that proves Chow was terrible" and then say "putting more players in the NFL does not mean they had a better recruiting class."
And stockpiling easy wins in a crappy conference has zero to do with players getting drafted in the NFL. Nobody cares what your college record was at NFL combines. See Brian Johnson (MVP of the Utes Sugar Bowl victory and most wins by a QB in Utes history). He did not get drafted.
Nice try, but you're still not making any sense.
So we've come to this. I think Chow was a positive for Utah recruiting (and scouting reports, tips, etc) for Utah entering the Pac 12. You think since rivals says Utah had a worse recruiting class this year (so far) than last year that means he was horrible and a mistake.
I don't care what rivals says anyway. I appreciate their info and find it interesting, but I don't think they're the word of god or anything when they are ranking players and recruiting classes. However, even if I did think they were the final say with 100% accuracy, it still wouldn't mean Chow was a mistake or he didn't help Utah or whatever. As I pointed out, Utah was already trending down (in the rivals recruiting rankings) long before they had Chow. So it is then pretty stupid to blame Chow for them getting a lower ranking one year, when Chow was only here for less than a year and they were already trending down before he came anyway.
Oh, and by the way, saying Whitt's opinion is laughable is REALLY what is laughable. Whitt has proven over and over again that he knows more than those guys. And what he said is spot on, if they really knew what they claim to know then they'd be making a whole lot more money in the coaching ranks than the peanuts they make at rivals.
