Shows how difficult is to recruit and how tough it will be to compete in the B1G moving forward, even with a good class. Michigan State, Indiana, and Maryland continue to recruit at a very high level, and Michigan is also doing well with Beilein as a coach. Finishing in the top 5 in the B1G remains a big challenge.
It's not that difficult.. Wisconsin finished in the top 4 the last 15 years.
