You really believe that?

Yes, I believe that. Most of the time potential and how good they currently are line up, so it's not as obvious (especially with certain positions). Use Scott McVey as an example. I believe the sites would agree with the OSU staff and BP that Scott is one of the best high school LBs in the country. They knock is his size, which limits his potential as a college player. (FWIW I agree with OSU/BP that the rankings are missing the boat with McVey.)

Recruiting rankings serve no purpose whatsoever other than to sell subscriptions to websites.

I've had a little experience with recruiting rankings as well bro.

Oh ok, thanks for pointing that out. I'll be sure to form my opinions in the future so that they don't disagree with yours. :roll2:

Rankings also cater to programs that have been 'media friendly', travel to showcases/combines, and have a history of prospects.

I definitely agree with that.

So you were able to inform me about how recruiting rankings work, but when I point out also having experience in the matter I'm being a jerk?

Not sure how that one works...but sorry you took offense to it.

You didn't even say whether you agreed or disagreed with my comment, just said "I've had a little experience..." like that was your way of saying that you don't agree with me. That's the diff. No biggie though. :osu:

I didn't think I need to say I agreed since I added to your original statement...

No big deal...but I am splitting it off.

I conveniently avoided the "jerk" comment and you're trying to put me on the spot :mad1:

Honestly, I didn't realize until just now that your response to my comment was agreeing with my comment. If I had known that, I wouldn't have posted the first post in this split thread. :ohwell:
