ND finish 9/10 in 2021 recruiting rankings

recruiting rankings, ND has had 12 recruiting cycles under Brian Kelly for an average of 12.6, I’ll round down for an even 12.

During the BK era the Irish have finished ranked 7 times (I’m including 2012). The Irish have finished unranked 4 times under BK. I assigned a value of 26 to the 3 unranked seasons and a value of 30 to the lone losing season (I think we can all agree that is an outlier). The average finish moves to 15. If you exclude the outlier the season finish moves to 13.5. Slightly worse than their season recruiting numbers.

I did the numbers quickly on my phone, I’m sure their slightly off.
