In the current (class of 2022) scout rankings, there are three 5* offensive tackles and one 5* offensive guard.  Last year (2021) there were six 5* offensive linemen total.  In 2020 there were two 5* offensive tackles, and that's it for 5* linemen.  The average of the last three years is 4 5* offensive linemen, which means that in the last decade, there have been about 40 total 5* offensive linemen, unless Scout has changed how it rates linemen or how many 5* players it gives out.  For Stanford to have signed roughly one out of every eight 5* offensive linemen in the 2012 - 2021 period strikes me as pretty darned good.

To me, the bigger problem is that the production from the two most recent 5* offensive linemen was more akin to 3* players.
