Well, the prestige helped. With a full season of prestige assistance (tm), two SWAC teams made the Top 10 recruiting classes - Grambling (#6) and Florida A&M (#10) - with Alcorn State (34) making the top 50. In the Heritage League, it went even better as 7 programs rounded out Top 50 with Howard (?!?) landing the #1 recruiting class in the nation and Delaware State (#5) landing in the Top 5. Will this yield results? We'll see. Delaware State added a Top 5 class to a team that made the NCAAs, so perhaps they'll be more resilient.

Wyoming did not benefit, however. Their class was 167th in the nation and 7th in the MWC. Wayne State had a solid class getting 4 recruits that left them the 29th best class in th country -- far and away better -- than any Horizon League program.
