Upperclassmen Contribution to Talent Rankings

[tsweezy]

Was curious how much teams are still relying on "genned" players (RS SO and older), so made a quick and easy ranking of the top-22 overall players on each team (this is position agnostic so it's not going to match my full 2023 team talent rankings 

 

 

Anyways, in the following table you have the top player overalls normalized, which is just my calculation of the top-22 overalls on the team and standardized on a 0-1 scale. The normalized genned top-22 excludes Freshmen and sophomores from the calculation (so this is your top-22 players who were originally genned). Diff is a (different scale) measure of how much the players you've recruited have bumped up your rosters talent. Higher numbers = your team is more better because of your recruits. A 0 means none of your recruited players are in the top-22 best players on your team (again, position agnostic). Also a rank column for each for handy reference.
