The Boise State 2013 recruiting class featured a total of 25 recruits, with an original ranking of 50, which indicates that the program was targeting players who were typically outside the top-tier rankings. Despite the low initial expectations, the S2S rerank improved to 40, suggesting that the assembled talent showed a greater level of performance than anticipated based on their recruiting profiles.
A notable trend in this class was the emergence of several players who became NFL starters, specifically Ryan Finley, Tanner Vallejo, and Kamalei Correa. Each of these players was originally ranked outside the top 600 recruits nationally, highlighting Boise State's ability to develop lower-ranked prospects into high-caliber players. This outcome indicates effective talent identification and player development strategies within the program that can transform recruits into impactful contributors at the highest levels of competition.
Overall, the 2013 recruiting class for Boise State significantly outperformed expectations, particularly with the high number of NFL starters emerging from the group. The S2S rerank moving upwards reflects the coaching staff's success in maximizing the potential of the recruits. The standout performances from several players, especially those who became NFL starters, underline the effectiveness of Boise State's recruitment and development processes.
This class serves as a reminder that success in recruiting is not solely determined by initial rankings but also by the ongoing development and impact of the players within the program.
