It's a shame that they are taking over the recruiting coverage with such terrible journalists. I believe that sentence was trying to say these top-3 QBs were better than the next group (miller, etc).

That's what i was assuming, but it's pretty hard to tell. And there quality of writing is essentially horrendous. I feel like I could do a better job, and I'm just a high school journalist.

They have talking heads who cannot talk clearly, writers who cannot write, and recruiting experts who don't know a thing about most recruiting battles (see Pryor).

But they have a national network, big money & big sponsors so they are winning.

I was watching one of the practices earlier, taped it and just now got to it, and they started talking about Braxton Miller. They said he was almost a Florida Gator but Driskel committed there first, so Braxton came to OSU instead.

Less hitting, but plenthy of buzz - ESPN

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- It was a helmets-only practice on Tuesday as game plans were refined and players got a chance to rest their legs a bit and concentrate mentally. There were still some standout performances, particularly by a great group of skill athletes.

• Eli Rogers (Miami, Fla./Northwestern), a Louisville commit, continues to be a gamebreaker for the Red team. He has such great quickness and burst out of his cuts that its really difficult for defensive backs to give him any cushion.

• Although they weren't in full gear, Savon Huggins (Jackson, N.J./St. Peter's) keeps living up to the billing as one of this class' best everydown backs. He's not overly flashy but very well-rounded; reminds us of a faster version of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice.
