[URL unfurl="true"]https://247sports.com/LongFormArticle/Blue-chip-ratio-college-football-2021-16-teams-who-can-win-national-title-166530729/#166530729_2[/URL]Put simply, to win the national championship, college football teams need to sign more four- and five-star recruits (AKA “Blue Chips”) than two- and three-star players over the previous four recruiting classes. This has been true basically as far back as modern internet recruiting rankings have existed. Also---What kind of numbers do you need to get into that national championship picture?[URL unfurl="true"]https://auburnwire.usatoday.com/2021/06/19/a-look-at-the-2021-blue-chip-ratio-and-where-auburn-stands/[/URL]In the last 10 years, every team who has won the national championship had a Blue-Chip Ratio of at least 52% or higher and with the College Football Playoff now planning its expansion to include 12 teams, Elliot predicts it will only strengthen the benchmark’s success.This year’s rankings are as follows:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Alabama-84%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Georgia-80%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Ohio State-79%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Clemson-67%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">LSU-66%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Oklahoma-66%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Texas-66%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Florida-66%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Texas A&M-61%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Michigan-58%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Auburn-56%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Oregon-56%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Penn State-56%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Notre Dame-55%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Miami-55%</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">USC-53%</li> </ol>So what exactly does WVU recruiting look like over the past 4 seasons?  Should give us an idea of making it to the national championship.Well its pretty dismal.  If you include ALL 4 and 5 star recruits at WVU from 2021 back to 2018, WVU, including all enrollees, transfers, signees  there are a total of 7 4 star recruits out of 100 recruits.That is 7%.As posted in another thread WVU has a Loooooong way to go.</blockquote>
