ReRank Breakdown: 2012 Oklahoma State Recruiting Class

The 2012 recruiting class for Oklahoma State showcased a mix of outcomes that reflected the program's ability to develop talent, particularly among lower-ranked recruits. With only 13% of the class categorized as blue-chip prospects, many of the significant contributions came from players who were originally ranked lower. Notably, Emmanuel Ogbah, a hit from this class, demonstrated that even recruits with less favorable rankings could emerge as top performers, achieving the status of NFL Starter.
In terms of overall performance, the class had a varied outcome profile, with several players achieving starting roles at the collegiate level, such as multiple College Starters. However, the class also suffered from a few misses, particularly among higher-ranked recruits, indicating that not all expectations were met. The fact that the S2S rerank moved down from 26 to 55 suggests that while the class had notable successes, it ultimately did not fulfill the higher potential indicated by its original ranking.

Overall, the 2012 recruiting class for Oklahoma State can be viewed as a mix of met and unmet expectations. While the class produced significant contributors, particularly from lower-ranked recruits, it struggled to capitalize on the higher potential of its top recruits. The S2S rerank slide indicates a recognition that while there were successes, they were perhaps not reflective of the original class ranking's promise. The key takeaway is that Oklahoma State's 2012 recruiting class had its strengths but ultimately underperformed against its initial expectations.
