At SI.com, Stewart Mandel lists the 10 best recruiters in college. Making the list:

Dave Wannstedt, head coach, Pittsburgh: Known as a relentless recruiter in the ’80s at Pitt, Oklahoma State, USC and Miami, Wannstedt has picked up right where he left off, assembling what is currently considered a national top-five class. By reconnecting with Western Pennsylvania high schools, he had 17 commitments by the end of summer, including national top-100 prospects Dorin Dickerson, Nate Byham and Kevin Collier. Now, let’s see if he can coach them.
