The 2013 recruiting class for Army included 11 total recruits, with no blue-chip prospects, indicating a reliance on lower-ranked players. The class was originally ranked 130th, and upon re-evaluation, it improved slightly to 118th. This shift suggests that while the overall talent level was not highly regarded, some players exceeded expectations by developing into college starters.
The two notable hits in this class, Andrew McLean and Scott Washle, both emerged as college starters despite their lower rankings, showcasing that Army managed to cultivate talent from less heralded recruits. This trend emphasizes Army's ability to develop players, even when initial recruiting expectations were modest. However, the presence of a miss in Patrick Joseph highlights that not all higher-ranked recruits lived up to their projected potential, which is a common pattern in recruiting classes across programs.
Overall, the Army 2013 recruiting class met expectations, with two players performing notably well as college starters while several others did not contribute significantly. The S2S rerank improvement indicates that Army successfully developed some of its recruits, but the lack of higher-end talent limited the overall effectiveness of the class. The key takeaway is that while the class had its hits, it ultimately lacked the depth of impact players needed to elevate its standing substantially.
