I was interested to see the disparity in talent based on recruiting in the Big 12. Needless to say people need not be worried about talent. We have hands down the best talent in the Big 12, we just need coaching. I never want to lose a recruit, but here's the break down of talent in the Big 12. Classes have taken a step back in the last few years, but still at the top in terms of the Big 12. No need to think Strong doesn't have talent to win (talent hasn't been the problem, it's been coaching).

Other schools haven't got a commit yet so aren't ranked.

 
Looking at our biggest non-conference opponents next year in UCLA and BYU.......Texas has had/currently has a better class through the years 2010-2015 other then in 2013 where UCLA had a better class.

 
Looking at our biggest non-conference opponents in ND and California for 2015. We've had a better class every year over California, and ND and Texas are about even in recruiting in terms of class rankings.

Point is through the 2015 season, as of right now Texas has better recruiting classes then everyone we play (other then maybe ND). Again, talent isn't the problem.
