The Idaho 2015 recruiting class, which ranked 172nd initially, saw a significant improvement in its S2S rerank to 122. This upward movement suggests that while the class may have entered with lower expectations based on recruiting rankings, the players developed positively within the program. With no blue-chip recruits in the class, the focus on player development became crucial.
Among the six recruits, two emerged as contributors, with one being an unranked player. The presence of contributors indicates that the coaching staff was able to effectively utilize the potential of these athletes, even those who were not highly sought after in the recruiting process. The overall class performance reveals a pattern where Idaho may be finding success in maximizing the output from lower-ranked recruits while continuing to develop the talent of those who were ranked.
Overall, the Idaho 2015 recruiting class met expectations, primarily due to the contributions from both ranked and unranked recruits. The S2S rerank reflects a positive development trajectory, indicating that the coaching staff succeeded in elevating the performance of their recruits beyond initial assessments. The key takeaway is that Idaho's approach to recruiting and player development has yielded effective outcomes, particularly in the context of their class ranking.
