I wrote about the success Bob Stoops is having with Oklahoma's recruiting class of 2009 this morning (Rivals.com guru Jeremy Crabtree slots the Sooners ninth in his national rankings). Leave it to Tom Dienhart of The Sporting News to show how powerful OU has been on the recruiting trail the past five years...
"I averaged the Rivals.com recruiting standings of each Big 12 team from 2003-07, and here is how they look:
1. Oklahoma 1.6
2. Texas 2.2
3. Nebraska 4.0
4. Texas A&M 4.4
5. Oklahoma State 5.4
6. Kansas State 7.0
T7. Missouri 7.4
T7. Texas Tech 7.4
9. Colorado 7.8
10. Kansas 8.8
11. Iowa State 10.4
12. Baylor 12.0
"The Sooners have been a talent hog."
