His star rating seems low for his offer list. Not that stars matter but still......... :moreinteresting

I like how everyone bashes Rivals for placing so much emphasis on the offer list, yet this is one of a thousand posts on Huskerboard where we do it :) (the difference is we only use it to justify increasing the stars or our targets/commits so then it's ok)

Precisely, if you are going to rank recruits based off of mostly offer list, then why not rank this kid on offer list.

The difference is we aren't talent evaluators on our own (for the most part). We can like a kid's tape or not, but looking at it individually, how many heavy-hitting schools are going after a kid is a strong indicator that a kid is good.

Rivals, on the other hand, are talent evaluators. You'd think they would evaluate this stuff based on tape and not get the cues from schools.

He has a lot of offers, but not the ones that most often gain you the 4th star. Maybe he should be a 5.7 3-star, but Duke, Cincinnati, CU, CSU, Kansas, Iowa St...those aren't offers that really matter when talking about that 4th star. Michigan, Nebraska, and Auburn are his 3 legitimate offers, and you could argue w/ Rich Rod up there in Ann Arbor that offer is trash, and Nebraska pretty well offers everyone. The top players in FL almost always have offers from Miami, St. and Florida. He is missing 2 of the 3. He could overcome that with others, but there's no offer from USC, LSU, Texas, Georgia, Oklahoma, Ohio State, Alabama, Tennessee, Notre Dame...etc, etc.
