The Big Ten finished a solid 2015 recruiting cycle with a solid national signing day. Solid, solid, solid all around.
The incoming class of Big Ten players lacks star power, but with Michigan, a traditional conference powerhouse, firing its head coach mid-cycle, that can be forgiven. And despite the lack of name-brand players (one signee in the national Top 50), the Big Ten signed impressive depth (30 signees between Nos. 51 and 250).
The power rankings that follow relied heavily on the 247Sports team rankings. Any deviations were made subjectively, based on how I felt each team filled its needs.
The slides are broken into secions to give a thorough look at each team's class. Under "National Rankings," you'll notice 2015 has been colored. A green shade means the team outperformed its previous four-year average. A red shade means it underachieved.
