3. West Virginia: Solid class held together despite awkward coaching transition.
4. Cincinnati: Good mix of talent from the Midwest and Southeast has Cincinnati in upper half of league.
5. Pittsburgh: Top 25 class dismantled by firing of Dave Wannstedt and botched hiring process.
6. USF: Best pickup came on last day but class lacks star power overall.
