don't fire the French tutors yet.
Dorsey has a 4* list but is rated 3* on recruiting sites. Who likes him is more important than his ranking this year.
Recruiting strategy obviously varies from school to school. To satisfy my curiosity as to how Forbes compares to other conference coaches I checked Verbal Commits for the Class of 2021. He's made a lot of offers in a short time, but not out of line relatively speaking. Here's where things stand in the ACC (2021 openings/open offers):
BC: 7/4
CU: 4/20
Dook: 3/7
FSU: 1/22
GT: 5/28
UL: 3/24
UM: 7/20
NCSU: 2/11
UNC: 3/8
ND: 3/1
Pitt: 2/14
Syr.: 2/8
UVa: 3/10
VT: 5/46
WF; 5/14
The conclusions to be drawn are unclear, other than some schools do select rather than recruit. The VT numbers likely reflect offers made by Buzz before he left and they may not be "commitable" offers (same may be true with Wake). It will be interesting to track the changes over the next few months.
Wow! VT with 46 offers... I f I’m a recruit I see that as disingenuous. Nd with one offer to me is proof that Brey gave up on hoops and is a full time bar hopper.
