‘18 GA WR Jordan Young (FSU signee)

[Roustabout]

He could be Julian Edelman's twin brother. The only difference is their age. Other than that, they could be twins.

And speed. If they were the same age and speed, they'd be twins.

They are different physically, but other than age, speed and size, they're the same.

Color, too. But if they were the same age, speed, size and color, they're identical.

I have a pair of pants just like that. Except they're blue, have stripes and are shorts.

Apparently CJP went in Home and young is shutting it down. No visits

Got us a WR we really needed and one that is going to be a special one I believe. :rock:

I haven't posted in 3 months but I had to respond to this one. Well done! :clap:

Boom!

While FSU continues to try and get Jordan Young on campus for a visit, the Georgia wideout is still solid to Tennessee, as is outside linebacker JJ Peterson.

Didn't notice it mentioned yet -- ESPN finally has a rating for Young, 4*. Rivals still has him at 5.6, 3*, and 247 composite remains 3*.

Can’t believe Rivals basically just didn’t take the time to even evaluate him.

Rivals guys have said before they won't change anyone's rank purely on film. They have to see in person before they will go 4/5 star level

Aka, pay our camp fees if you want stars from us.

Apparently they thought it was OK to give him a 5.6 based on video only. So it's all right for a mediocre or bad score, but not a good one?

I don't understand. Young had a composite of 0.8898 before ESPN ranked him. When they give him a 4* he drops to 0.8891.

They've been revising scores over the past week or so. I didn't notice if they changed his composite before the ESPN rank. Did you?

I did not. They might have.

 

[Dust10]

What hurts your composite more, not being ranked by Rivals or having a low rating? That could be it.

 

[wrangler]

I did not. They might have.

I didn't see who got revised. I just noticed the 247 average composite changed every day or two, by a hair, and the changes evened out.

 

[Volnukem]

When he had the 0.8898 (composite cutoff for 4 star is 0.89), he was ranked by 247 and Rivals. ESPN was the only one left. When they ranked him a 4*, his composite dropped. It doesn't really matter. It's easy to see he is 4 star talent.

He immediately steps in as the fourth highest ranked WR on our roster behind Callaway, Taylor, and Jennings.

Rivals wants you to pay for their camps. They're not in the business of actually rating talent.

Rivals is nothing but a money scam.

I don’t even pay attention to their rankings.

I don't understand. Young had a composite of 0.8898 before ESPN ranked him. When they give him a 4* he drops to 0.8891.

The composite doesn't care about the actual scores (ratings) assigned by the other services, only the relative rankings (i.e. #29 in the country). It averages those rankings and then assigns a rating based on the average ranking. If his composite rating dropped, its because someone ranked higher than him.

Well doesn’t sound like a bad investment if you’re a borderline college FB talent.

1) Pay camp fees (idk how much? Assume 300-500 dollars for camp)

2) Don’t fall over yourself at the camp and get a decent 3 star rating.

3) Get recruited (wined, dined, and girled all over on your free visits)

4) Sign a LOI with the college of your choice and a free ride (50k-100k value over the next 4 years)
