ReRank Breakdown: 2016 San José State Recruiting Class

The 2016 recruiting class for San José State presented a mixed bag of outcomes. With 25 total commitments and a blue-chip percentage of just 4%, the expectations for this class were moderate at best, reflected in the original class ranking of 59. The S2S rerank, which moved the class down to 123, indicates that the performance of the recruits did not meet the initial recruiting expectations.
Despite a majority of recruits receiving low outcomes, there were notable successes among some lower-ranked players. The presence of four players achieving the "College Starter" label suggests that the program was able to develop talent effectively, particularly from recruits who were originally ranked lower. This illustrates a commitment to player development, even in the face of a class that ultimately underperformed against its original ranking.

Overall, the San José State 2016 recruiting class underperformed expectations. The S2S rerank decreased due to a lack of high-impact players and a predominance of low outcomes across many recruits. While there were a few hits, the majority of the class did not significantly contribute to the program's success. The key takeaway is that while certain players exceeded their recruiting expectations, the overall class lacked the depth and talent needed to elevate the team's standing.
