Default Mid-major basketball recruiting rankings

Must be a typo. I don't see BYU on here. Right Junkie?

I just hate knowing there is a "mid major" distinction in basketball now. Last time I checked, there wasn't a BCS in basketball.

You're not being realistic.

I remember when Utes used to make fun of us for bragging about recruiting. Of course, this was when they were better at us at football and basketball. It seems so long ago.

The BCS has invaded college basketball. Most of the so-called experts claim that basketball is better in the BCS conferences.

I don't think they turned the tables by not recruiting well. But basketball was a fluke, as I've explained. BYU won't have another big recruiting year until there are a herd of Mormon thoroughbreds coming out again and for some reason they all decide to go to BYU instead of Utah or somewhere else.

Recruiting smack is lame.

It's lame when BYU fans use it, it's lame when Utah fans use it.

So many recruits don't pan out. Others never even play for the school they initially committed to.

Once they get playing time and start making an impact, let me know. Until then, it's just talk.

BYU is not a mid-major.

Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.

You are right BYU is not a mid-major; mid-majors occasionally win NCAA tournament games. I would classify BYU as a low-major.
