Beating Penn St. was the first test and, DePaul passed it with a C-. Their next game is at Notre Dame who recently lost to Radford at home 63-60 ? After that they will be tested on the road at Northwestern. Both games are very winnable except Depaul will need to play a complete game to even consider getting the W. That final two minute collapse against Penn St. can not happen on the road against either one of these opponents. DePaul still has a ton of work to do on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball. The best thing I can say is that The Blue Demons have finally beat a decent team in their non conference schedule so that is a step in the right direction.

Not best in 20 years. I would say best since the Tucker and Koshwal class. So best in 10 years.
Not sure how anyone can argue that this is the best in 20 years. Although I know the other site is claiming that.
Its a great class though and I am very excited about it. Add in Hall and it gets even better.
Add in another top 100 kid... and its special. Even with Shannon though I dont think its as good as Sawyer and Brown(Mcdonalds All American) pre college results.
It could prove to be the best, but not pre college.
I voted yes based on the fact the class is not complete yet
Ok - but if you go based upon the known class right now, is it best class in 20 years? If agreement / disagreement with that statement is contingent on a complete class, then would you agree making a statement that this is the best class in 20 years is a faulty statement?

The problem with the poll, as I see it, is that it is not multiple choice. My answer is no... not best in 20 years. Which class is better? Could make an argument that each of the classes i listed were better.
2007 was top heavy (Dar and Mac), but is Oscar better than the fillers of Bizoukas, Stula, Obi, Poscic? 2003 was balanced, with 4 top 150 guys. 2000 had just 2, but Imari and Andre or Weems and Jacobs... easy call. 2005 had Woods and Chandler better ranked than Weems and Jacobs and Currie (ranked top 125 or Lopez who is perhaps top 200)?
However, seen multiple 'journalists' reference it as best class in 20 years. Perhaps best class considering the circumstances in 20 years, but best overall in 20... No from me.

No, not the best class in 20 years, but nonetheless impressive that a dozen years removed from postseason play with a retread coach we can land an above average class.
