MU isn't in on guys like Kiel, DGB, Williams, and Boehm unless they 1) win games and 2) consistently put guys in the League. Having two top 10 NFL draft picks this past year (one originally a 5*, the other a 3*) certainly didn't hurt in that regard.

True,
rankings don't mean everything.
Anthony Collins and Aqib Talib from KU were both 2 star according to Rivals and ended up being first team All American.
Should be a fun season.
