The 2013 recruiting class for Arizona featured a total of 25 recruits, with a modest original class rank of 46. However, the class demonstrated significant improvement in outcomes, as evidenced by the S2S rerank to 97. The class produced several contributors and starters, with a notable focus on developing players at various positions, particularly on the offensive line and in the linebacker corps.
Outcomes varied widely among the recruits, with standout performances from players like Steven Gurrola, who earned All Conference honors, and several others who achieved the status of College Starter. This indicates a positive trend in player development, as many recruits performed above their original expectations. However, the presence of a high-profile bust, such as Jesse Scroggins, highlights the risks associated with recruiting highly ranked players who do not fulfill their potential.
Overall, the 2013 recruiting class for Arizona met expectations, achieving a solid number of contributors and starters relative to its original rank. The S2S rerank indicates that the program was able to develop talent effectively, leading to outcomes that surpassed initial projections for many players. The class's ability to produce multiple starters demonstrates a successful recruitment strategy, despite a few notable underperformers.
A key takeaway is that while the class had its misses, the overall development of players indicates a positive trajectory for Arizona's recruiting efforts.
