KALAMAZOO, MI – Successful Mid-American Conference football programs make a living by uncovering hidden gems in the world of high school recruiting.
Corey Davis, Jason Babin and Zach Terrell each came to Western Michigan with two-stars or fewer attached to their recruiting profile, but each went on to break records in Kalamazoo before trying their hand in the NFL.

With National Signing Day set for Feb. 7, we’re breaking down the Broncos’ 10 highest-rated football recruits of the past 10 years to see if they lived up to their billing and how they compare to the players already in WMU’s highly touted 2018 class.
