A few thoughts to help explain the way that I view the numbers.
a. Texas is tied for the most Rivals super blue chips, which is very good.
b. I'm waiting for the other networks to release their own rankings, so I can compile the consensus Super Blue chip rankings and the total number of players in each class that are ranked as a super blue chip by each service. Probably a week away from having that full set of data.
c. In a vacuum, these numbers won't stand out a ton because of the low volume of numbers that we''re talking about. It's better to view this through the prism of a rolling 4-year cycle of results. In that instance, if Texas pulled 6 in four consecutive cycles (as an example), it would mean that the Longhorns would have 24 super blue chips on the roster when almost everyone on the list not named Georgia, Ohio State, possibly Alabama (their numbers are seriously decreasing post-Saban because of the Portal) and potentially Oregon (as a newcomer to the party with a few more cycles under its belt) is sitting below 10 as a constant number.
It means that Texas is the pack of 4-5 schools that simply have different levels of rosters than the rest of the country. The separation of Texas from Oklahoma and Texas A&M continues...
d. Super blue chips signed in the last 3 cycles: Texas - 18, Oklahoma - 9 and Texas A&M - 6
