Miami Mentions: 2020 Top247 July Update

View as article
I just dont think its subs like others i think they trust the coaches. Like if saban checks out an unknown dlineman that no one knows then the scouts get a hold of him. I think he gets a bump cause of saban. If dana hologram offered the same kid and saban didnt they dont trust hologram. I think its a coach thing. Not a favortism to a school thing

It's a combination of several factors. Either way you slice it there's a bias.

I dont believe the we hate miami kids thing i think its a bias of head coaches to better put it. I always believe a saban kid gets a bump or if he goes full court press for someone which is okay i get it. I want anyone clemson bama or uga want

I agree it's not just us. For example it had to have just happened to Michigan. Our entire class dropped but we still jumped them in rank.
 
I think its because they trust those schools. Maybe ur right who knows but i think they trust the schools that churn out first rpunders yearly
I get that too but then they’re not making decisions based on the kids’ abilities, they’re adding in the influence of who they’re committed to. No way in ****, after his performance at the Opening, does Chaney drop if he’s committed to Clemson, Bama, O$U or UGA.

I’d like to know which service is the fairest. That’s who I’m going to start following more.

Dana Hologram’s an illusion.

The explanation now is that our kids aren't being dropped in the rankings, but instead that other kids are rising.

Brevin would've been a 5 star had he committed to a top SEC school, OSU, Mich, or FSU. You can bet your Ar$e.
This is just false. There aren’t a lot of 5* TEs, and the ones there are tend to be prototype kids. Brevin is not a prototype athlete, he didn’t blow away others on measurables, and so he was a high 4* kid on production and ability. He was also the second ranked TE in that class. The top ranked TE was more of a prototype (6’7”), went to UGA, and was also a 4*. Both he and Brevin were ranked as 6.0 on Rivals, which is a notch below 5*. It’s a myth Brevin would have been ranked higher if he went elsewhere. Maybe there are examples of that, but he ain’t it.
 
On your second paragraph i find it hard to believe like if a kid gets a fifth star that means billy joe sitting in his basement signs up for a subscription just to look at the fifth star by a kids name. I juat find that hard to believe. I respect your football iq and the players u like same as me most of the time but its hard to believe man

Well it’s so hard to believe that 247 got busted years ago for bumping FSU and bama recruits. Also Kevin Patrick said big schools coaches pay the “ evaluators “ to give bumps to their players because they get bonuses for 4-5 star type players”.

But just like politics is all on the up and up now? I’m almost positive it is lol.

It’s about the size of the fan bases that pay for subscriptions. UM’s fan base that would pay for football board subscriptions is nowhere near the size of the big public schools. They want to make the people that pay the bills happy. It’s certainly politics.

That sounds exactly like a politician spinning to save face that bribes were taken under table lol.

Not saying Wiltfong is on the take, just saying that explanation sounds exactly like damage control.

That’s BS. Then explain Nauta and O’Leary? Brevin had better stats than them both AND is faster AND more athletic. They are all the same size. If being 6’7 matters than why did Washington drop 10 spots after killing it at camps and running faster than Nauta and O’Leary could dream about? It’s because Nauta chose UGA and O’Leary went to FSU. Whorechant’s Dot boosts FSU commits ratings on rivals like Stampini does the Gators on 247. They have a huge amount of subscribers for their boards compared most everyone else.

That may be fair, but the bigger problem is you drop him and then have a kid like Donnell Harris right outside the Top 50. He's weaker and doesn't have an array of pass rush moves either. Chantz tested out as the best DE athletically at The Opening.

I wouldn't agree with the Harris ranking either. Nobody's watched him live yet with the mindset of comparing him to other 2020 guys, so probably a random placeholder ranking for now
 
Them dropping Chaney is disrespectful.

IDGAF what anyone says.

I think bias is always going to be the normal. Like they used to rate our guys super high after Butch because they trusted the U. Bias in some form is true but u dont need bias for cant miss guys like patrick Peterson Clowneys etc. U want no bias? Look at gogeta liberty city el and few guys here and u wont get bias

It seems wild to "random placeholder" a Top 50 spot to a guy who just reclassified. They're driving up the price so he can the SEC bids that he's looking for.
