The key to the analysis under Shaw:

Using the 247Sports Composite Rating, we tallied the total three-, four- and five-star prospects signed at each of the 65 Power 5 programs from 2009 through 2019 and how many of each star rating were drafted from 2012 through 2022.

Couldn't have picked a better time frame to make him look good. Wonder how the analysis will look in a few years after the last five of Shaw's classes. Purely a conjecture, but I'd doubt we'd remain on top. . . .

Zero 5-stars signed after that time frame, so the ratio remains intact and we'd remain on top. Can't mess up the ratio if there are no additions to mess up ;)

4-stars and 3-stars? Likely a different story.

You would think the 5 star-to-NFL and 3 star-to-NFL effect would allow better recruiting of more five star recruits.
