were ranked before he took over, after he left and then compare those ranking (before/during/after) vs offensive recruiting talent over same span?

I only ask because I wonder if Rees and Ludwig traded spots over same span, how do you think Rees would have done with Utah talent vs Ludwig with ND talent.

For example, I offer up our common opponents this season: USC and Stanford

Utah scored 43 and 47 on USC and 42 on Stanford and won all three match ups. With significantly more talent, ND scored 27 on USC and 14 on Stanford, both losses.

Aside from this, when I've watched Utah play Ludwig's play design and play calling appear to make things easier for his players (setting less talented players up for success) while when I watch our offense under Rees the design and play calling appear to make things more difficult, in most cases relying on our players to claw and scratch for everything usually only having success by out talenting opponents.
