The Empire Class of 2016 is now signed and ready to enroll at the U (for those that haven't done so already). This post will examine how this class looks compared to previous classes in the Kill/Claeys era. We'll also talk about what we like best about this class and about some disappointments on National Signing Day.
Visualizing the class
For the fifth year in a row, Jerry Kill managed to sign a class with a higher average rating (according to the 247Sports Composite) than the previous cycle. To help show this, I've updated Matt's excellent chart from last year.
