The 2010 recruiting class for Eastern Michigan featured a total of 21 recruits, with no blue-chip prospects. The original class rank of 108 reflects a low expectation for the talent brought in, and the subsequent S2S rerank of 101 indicates a slight improvement in perceived talent after evaluation. This suggests that while the overall class was not highly regarded, some recruits managed to develop into contributors and starters.
Among the 21 recruits, several players achieved outcomes that reflect positively on the program’s development capabilities. Jordan Erbes stands out as a notable success story, earning a "College Starter" label despite being a low-ranked recruit. This illustrates that Eastern Michigan was able to cultivate talent effectively within this class, allowing players who may not have been highly recruited to contribute significantly.
On the other hand, the presence of a ranked recruit like Desdan Hester, who ended up with a "Bust" outcome, highlights the challenges Eastern Michigan faced in maximizing the potential of higher-ranked prospects. The mixed results indicate that while the program succeeded in developing some players, there were also significant missed opportunities with other recruits.
Overall, the 2010 recruiting class for Eastern Michigan met expectations based on their original rankings, showcasing a mix of contributors and starters from predominantly unranked recruits. The class's S2S rerank improved slightly, reflecting the team's ability to develop talent, particularly with Erbes as a standout performer. While there were instances of underperformance, particularly with Hester, the overall outcome suggests that the program effectively utilized the talent available to them.
In summary, this class demonstrated a reasonable level of success in player development relative to the expectations set by their recruiting rankings.
