Buffalo Recruiting Class 2022 #2 in the MAC According to 247

I found one other glaring side effect of the Transfer portal, it’s has given me a blind spot to the traditional recruiting trail.

Over the past six weeks or so my focus, what little focus there is, has been about players here leaving, or what players UB could pull from other colleges. Meanwhile Coacu Linguist has been working the recruiting trail hard and bringing in maybe the deepest class of recruits I ever remember seeing.

It’s not a huge class, only 15 players, but 14 of them are three-star prospects. Miami did a bit better, bringing in 17 three stars (100% of their prospects). The RedHawks, Bulls, and Rockets, had the best classes (by this metric).

So let’s look at the 15 prep players who have signed a Letter of Intent with Buffalo.
