So apparently, Dallas Morning News believes A&M and UNT class are

[Objective Aggie]

If we believe the Dallas Morning News (and why wouldn't we, as it is the preeminient unbiased bastion of sports journalism in all the land that and shows no signs of being hit by massively falling revenues and being overtaken by other more credible on-line sources, right?)

UNT class = A&M class = Tech class (Tech and class in same sentence?)

Baylor + TCU, which > A&M

Texas = OU

SMU worse than all of the above

Just don't understand their lack of consistency in ratings. And Texas, which ESPN states is the 3rd best in the country got an A-. ????

Just goes to show how crazy and random rating 17/18 year olds can be.

I have a feeling that those rankings were based on how well the school did this year, versus previous years recruiting and expectations for the conference affiliation. For example, SMU's class is down from last year, so they underachieved a bit. If all things were equal and all the schools compared were in the same conference, those rankings would be different.

what amazes me is the number of D-1 players in the metroplex that received scholarships.

You have to realize that they are not rated by the same person. Our beat writer, B. Vito, that writes for the Denton paper wrote the article in the DMN and provided his grade. I don't think he covered A&M's class, so there is your inconsistency, except $MU's class rating was spot on.

Classic grading on the curve.

Back to work, OA.

They are grades, not rankings.
