New 300 dropped today. We have 9 in the top 300, but none in the top 30. FSU has 11 with 4 in the top 30, Florida has 2 but none in the top 250. Also, IMG Academy has a ridiculous 9 kids in the top 300; they have 5 in the top 40 and 2 5* on one team. Sorry, but that's not high school football. They should play JCs or something.

The ESPN ranking are a joke, how is Benjimin Vicotor #264 ?? He's one of the best players in the nation. Zack McCloud & McArther Burnett aren't even rated. Freddie Pinder is a 3 star recruit.
 
McCloud not ranked is beyond retarded, Vosean Joseph as a 4 * in comparison is even more retarded.

Tyler Byrd as #1 ATH is very interesting.
 
Told yall about byrd

Richards is too low

Mccloud not being rated is retarded so for burnett

Mullins, bruce and allison are too low

Richards is again too low
 
Ok, I think we can all agree Shaq is too low, but AT LEAST he's ranked consistently in that range. Some of these guys are WAYYYY too low.

I don't know, at first glance a lot of these guys are where they need to be FOR NOW. The only two that I see might be low are Jack Allison and Sam Bruce. Both of those kids should be top 40 guys. If these rankings are based on camps and combines then there is no reason why those two didn't shoot up the rankings. From everything I have read, Bruce and Allison have killed it this offseason.

Everyone else looks to be on par. Yes, Shaq should be higher. But he will get his chance after the Opening.

A guy like DMullins is around where he should be..Amir Rasul too. They will get there chance to climb the rankings if they perform well at the Opening and have good senior years. Lets be frank, there are mixed reviews about both of these even on this site. I have seen some posters not be too fond of Mullins and Rasul.

Richards wont be a top 100 guy until he plays at a better HS. This kid is just getting the bad end of not going to a STA or a Dwyer type school. All there is to it. Also, I didn't see much on him around the camp circuit either.
 
something tells me this mainly based on tape, if they actually had gone in person to these camps they would have see deion jackson and would have atleast given him a star rating
 
Must be tape and offer related as Lawrence Graham killed the Nike combine with a Sparq rating of over 100 and still isn't ranked and has no stars. I guess his height is hurting him big time.
 
McCloud is the most glaring omission. He can be really special once he fills out.
 
At least we have 5 in the top 100. Rivals only has sam bruce. Im telling u if our commits was commited else where they would be ranked much higher

Called the Byrd move and Bosa over Manuel out prior. Byrd is a bad man and we will have trouble keeping him. Not really worried about Mccloud, he will end up being a top five LB. Im glad that a site finally realized how good Bethel is. Joseph Jackson is ranked too low and I agree with Mullen over Saivion Smith, Smith was not impressive at a camp this year but he is still one of the best CBs in this class. IMO Mullins and Bruce are still underrated, Mullins is better than a lot of people think, he out shined Phiilips, Lane and a lot of other higher rated older WRs at camps being just a Sop****re and Junior. Mullen, Braun, Tatum, Saloman and Fils-Aime need to be a priority.

OP you left out number 220; 2016 OG Parker Braun from kissimmee.

He is being recruited by Kehoe an was supposedly blown away by Miami during his March unofficial visit to campus according to article by CS. But OSU is dark horse to watch with him because of his family connection to the OSU coaching staff.

Here is a link to thread already started about him.
