USC set the market last year with the No. 1 overall class in the Rivals Industry Team Recruiting Rankings with 35 signees. A year later, the Trojans are only expected to take 16 commits in the 2027 cycle. That’s partly due to what they see as a class lacking the depth to spend top dollar on beyond the very top-end recruits. More: on3.com/news/top-colle…

Lets be real and tell it like it is. Real competitors are becoming harder and harder to find. Vanity players that love showcases and convenient training are around every corner. Nice kids get their scholarships taken. Nice kids get released from pro ball. A kid can be the best kid on the team. He can sit on the front row in class and make straight A's. He can be the student body president and a kid everyone wants to marry their daughter. But. He's on scholarship and maybe NIL money to be an impact baseball player. He's on scholarship and possibly NIL money to help the coaches, program and his teammates win baseball games. If he can't make an impact athletically, he will be shown the door. It's supposed to be cruel, rude and nasty to allow the cream to rise to the top. It's a competition and it's not for everyone. Coaches want players with great makeup, but if you can't play, it doesn't matter to them. Coaches want junk yard dogs that want to dominate the competition. Coaches want dudes that can do it vs the equal and or better. Coaches want dudes with moxie, feel, different gears and heightened awareness in game defining situations. Coaches want players that take practice and games personal. Coaches want players that are more concerned with competing than their mechanics, gear and sunglasses. Coaches want players that want to be the difference between winning and losing. The players that want the ball or bat in their hand with the game on the line. Want to be a better player? Be a better competitor and you'll be a better player. Be a better competitor in everything that you do. Take everything personally, because it is. Represent the name on the back of your jersey like the toughest, most competitive player on every team you're on.
