Apparently, your academic tier standing will make a recruit more likely to sign.

Also being BCS mattered in 2005.

Yes it did. But the coefficient for recent winning percentage is larger than for being in a BCS conference.

Which bodes negatively for Utah.

Joining a BCS conference may not be wise if it costs us too much in winning percentage.
