The New Mexico 2010 recruiting class demonstrated a mix of outcomes, with notable contributions and a few disappointing performances. The class was originally ranked 84th, but the S2S rerank dropped to 113, indicating that the overall development of the recruits did not meet initial expectations. The class featured 16 total recruits, with a blue chip percentage of only 6%, suggesting that the talent pool was largely composed of lower-ranked players.
LaMar Bratton emerged as a standout, earning an All Conference designation, which reflects positively on the coaching staff's ability to develop talent. However, the majority of the class displayed a trend of underperforming relative to their original rankings, particularly among those who were expected to contribute more significantly. The presence of ranked recruits who ended up as contributors rather than stars highlights a development gap that New Mexico will need to address moving forward.
Overall, the New Mexico 2010 recruiting class underperformed expectations. While there were successes, such as LaMar Bratton's All Conference achievement, the drop in the S2S rerank illustrates a trend of recruits failing to realize their potential. The class's performance suggests that while there were some positive outcomes, many players did not develop in line with their initial rankings. The takeaway from this class is the need for improved evaluation and development strategies to maximize the potential of future recruits.
