But what's the average rate? Sure 38% seems like a lot but what the national average for a recruit staying for 4 or 5 years. I'm not trying to be a troll or start a fight and 38% seems like a lot but with out knowing what other teams deal with it is hard to say how much affect it really has.

General consensus is that, on average, any given recruit has about a 50/50 chance of panning out.

This is a nearly identical argument to the "too many walkons on the travel roster" argument from a few weeks ago that was thoroughly debunked once we started looking at the travel rosters of other schools.

Then, by all means, please post some stats that back up your claim. Obviously "general consensus"--whatever that means--would say that any given recruit has a 50/50 chance of panning out...that's just probability, he either works or he doesn't.

Now, if you can tell me the attrition rate at other programs and find that Nebraska's close to average, then you can say that this is debunked.

You want me to do your work for you? Here's one link to get you started. It just deals with SEC QBs from '05-'14. Pro-style QBs had a 37.5% success rate, while dual threats came in at 18.8%.

http://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/sec-football/last-decades-elite-qb-recruits-panned/

Here's one for OU showing 40% attrition. (BTW, attrition means leaves school. The 50% figure I quoted above is a rule of thumb with the recruiting services and includes players who stay 4 years but never become starters.)

Now, if you want to do your own research, go to scout.com or rivals.com and look up recruiting classes for particular schools from a few years ago and then check how many of those guys are still on the current roster. If you do it, it will be a good learning experience, but I don't expect you to post the results as they will be counter to your agenda.

You were the one purporting a claim, all I was asking was for you to back it up. Much like trials, you have to prove your claim beyond a reasonable doubt. It's not good enough to say: "general consensus is 50/50" and then ask me to provide evidence for that.

 
Onus is on you to back up your own claims if you want to refute that 39% is a ridiculous number for attrition. It makes sense that QB success rate would be low because that's a very difficult position to play. OU is a start, but hardly representative of an average.

50% is a fuel of thumb? For who? I certainly wasn't aware. What's your sefinition of "working out?" Does that include a guy who never does anything spectacular but develops into an average starter or even a capable backup? Because that still helps the team. A lot. Something that none of those 39% can do... they're simply a black hole in the roster.

No you (or at least the OP) were the ones making a claim that the Huskers have a bare cupboard due to some arbitrary line of attrition being crossed. People are posting half the statistical story and expecting people to swallow it hook, line and sinker.

It's the exact same thing that happened with the "Travel Roster Walkons" issue from a few weeks ago.

No, the flaw in your reasoning has already been pointed out. XX% is meaningless unless we know the rate for other teams. That puts the onus back on you to show that your 38% number has any meaning.

I already linked to one article showing Oklahoma has a 40% attrition rate.

And please, stay away from magnifying glasses. All that sunshine you're pumping might start the straws you're grasping for on fire.

 
So how did Bo win 9 with such horrific attrition and crappy classes...... (Not a Bo supporter)

I don't believe for a minute we have less talent than the teams we've faced thus far. Wisky beat us with a lb converted to a RB and a safety who was a QB, switched to WR and then to safety. With a QB who sucks...... Our "pathetic" team (per the recruiting gurus) however managed to score 21 points on a team that had only allowed 13 the previous few games.

It's not talent. It's coaching..............

 
Here are the attrition numbers for the Big 10 from BRV's link:

Following information covers 2002-2013 signing classes for Big 10 schools. Research from those signing classes found the number of players that failed to complete their eligibility at that school. Failures were counted for: non-qualifiers, players getting dismissed, failing school, transfers, just quit playing football or unknown reasons. If players left school early for NFL, I do not count them as failing to complete eligibility. Updated 3/3/2015

Every team in college football deals with attrition as well as injuries. The bottom line is that Nebraska has enough talent currently to beat every team that we've played. It's the decision making and personnel decisions that and the overall 'coaching' of this team that has been this teams true downfall. Enough with the excuses....

Exactly. Nebraska must be ranked in the bottom 25% now. There is no excuse for 2-4. We have not even played a decent team yet.

And we're done. Another myth debunked.

How dare you use facts on this board........ But, Riley is experienced.... He does more with less....... Once he gets better facilities........... One fact that is true. He currently sits at .498

In his defense, much like Frank, Cally and Bo, Riley has saddled himself with dead weight that are not helping him IMO. Might be a case that with better talent, facilities and staff, his managerial style can make a go of things....... For the program's sake, I hope he makes dome change and can get things going. My far is that as losses pile up, the already fragile psyche of the team gets worse and guys don't buy in at all to his system.....

 
If you wanna "debunk the myth," it's on you to do so.

The author was complaining about VaTech attrition, which over the span from '02-13 being discussed, was 39%. Same as NU.

Also, if you want me to just examine the upperclassmen only (ignoring the last two classes), which is what the author was doing, our attrition rate becomes 29/62 or 47%.
