I don't think most 3-star guys get 19 offers. Also, as others have pointed out, there are 4 and 5-star guys that are overranked. I just think the ranking system is foul (my opinion). As I said in a response in this thread, the media has made recruiting such a big deal that teams gain and lose...

I didn't say they were superstars. I'm giving my opinion that the ratings are jacked. I asked what everyone else thinks. I pointed out that a kid with 19 D-1 offers is #652 nationally. It doesn't need to be a personal attack on me or anyone else. Just a healthy debate.

I agree at a starting point, but it's all over the map. Look at a kid like Josh Sanguinetti. Was a top rated prospect at the end of the season and has now fallen significantly in ranking. This is all in the "off season." What I am also pointing out that in arguably the #1 state for football...

That's anododal. How many player's are labeled "3-stars" vs all other players? Only 1% of all college athletes go into play pro sports. I'm not saying every kid that is 3-star isn't a 3-star. I'm saying their process is flawed

I can appreciate your sarcasm of me presenting 100% fact. However, what I present is an opinion based on the numbers that these recruiting services provide. I applied simple mathematical logic to what they present. I didn't make up the numbers. I simply applied logic to it. You can...

I guess you can say that to CMR, because I quoted him. I also have a Master's degree in Engineering. You don't have to agree with me about rankings being garbage, but denying what I presented is nonsensical.

I just brought it up because I think it's an interesting topic. I think it does matter because so much is made out it by the media. We have people earning a living ranking kids. What happens is that it projects onto the school's perception of getting or not getting elite athletes. It...

Then why would we be recruiting these guys and they have lots of offers. It doesn't match

He has 3's and 4's, but his rating at 4 was the lowest possible 4.

Tell that to CMR dude. I'm sure they don't set a fixed number. But based on the population of Florida, and the quality of football being played, that is exactly what happens. Open your eyes.

Tell that to Johnathon Garvin.

True., but he should be much higher right now. You can't be the 3rd or 4th best in the state of Florida at your position and be 45th best nationally. Is the 3rd or 4th best WDE in Florida a 3-star? Makes no sense.

We all know how Miami recruits seem to be given rankings well below their ability and talent. Guys rated 3 stars, but have 10+ offers in which half are from elite schools. In my opinion, ESPN is the worst at ranking players. Like CMR said, "there are so many talented players in South Florida...
