That's pretty cool. I'm expecting Marquette to go up in the rankings quite a bit in a week or so. Word around the web is that we have a strong possibility of adding a couple recruits during Marquette Madness (Oct. 11).
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Class of '16

There is a lot of chatter about Blueitt favoring Xavier. We'll see, but he would be a great pick-up in what already is a strong recruiting class. Hopefully, we'll know within the week.

These are early rankings and don't mean much. Most of the top 25 players by anyone's list haven't committed yet. When those dominoes start to fall, these rankings will completely change.

You know, commitments are far enough along for 2014 that about half of a typical top 25 (and 2/3's or more of a top 100) are already off the board. The rankings will shift, yes, but things have progressed far enough that current top classes won't be absent from the final rankings. So top 5/10/25 now doesn't mean they won't finish that high, it's still a good position to be in that reflects well on recruiting. If we had nobody with a top 25 class, at this point, we'd, rightfully, be pointing at what a disaster 2014 recruiting has been.

How does the fact that if next week some team in the B12 gets some recruit from somewhere diminish the significance of the talent infusion already scheduled to enter the Big East in 2014. It would be different if most BE teams where still in a ton of recruiting battles for that uncommitted talent, but anyone following the trail this year knows that's actually not the case for the league on a whole.

Looking at 24/7 sports list as a benchmark they have about 75 of the top 100 kids off the board. That being said the kids ranked in the top 10 are almost all undecided. It looks like the rankings will shift a little bit but I'd imagine it will mostly be the biggest schools grabbing the top 10 kids (Kentucky, Duke, UNC, Kansas, Indiana, Ohio State, Louisville, Florida) so if they aren't ranked they will be and if they are they will move up.
