The 2012 recruiting class for Tulane experienced a mixed bag in terms of player performance relative to their original recruiting expectations. With an original class rank of 99 that improved to a rerank of 65, this class showed some upward mobility in overall talent evaluation, suggesting that the recruits performed better than initially anticipated. The class featured a low blue-chip percentage of 6%, indicating that most of the recruits were not highly regarded coming out of high school.
The majority of the recruits made a positive impact, with several achieving the "College Starter" designation. This outcome reflects a trend towards developing players who, while not highly ranked, were able to contribute significantly at the collegiate level. However, the presence of a notable miss in the class, particularly in the case of Walker Van Hooser, highlights that not all expectations were met.
Overall, the Tulane 2012 recruiting class met expectations, as evidenced by the number of players who became college starters and contributors despite the lower initial ranking. The movement in the S2S rerank indicates that the program was able to develop talent effectively. The takeaway from this class is that while there were some misses, the majority of the recruits provided valuable contributions to the program.
