LSU dad got me thinking about the whole star system. No doubt they do a good job in some cases, look at who usually wins. Also true tho that some kids don't get evaluated properly, or even at all because they don't pay money or travel across the country to go to camps.

Welcome to UT Timothy! Glad you're a Vol. As a Vol fan you're welcome to come on here and crab about everything in life while sitting on the couch in your boxers and stained wife beater but the players usually don't cause they have a life.

WE HAVE THE NUMBER ONE recruiting budget in the known free world! sorry hit caps lock, just went with it. 0 excuses for not getting the horses. anyone whos ok with just two and three star players after three consecutive bowl wins, 9-4 seasons are just not being realistic. it is frustrating.

welcome to TN son, congrats.

My post didn't have anything to do with that. LSU dad has been trying to expose the scam of these websites who make money off of high school kids and yet the kids don't see a dime. Plus some guys get rated lower who can't attend their camps and pay money to be evaluated. There are some serious concerns with the system. But carry on

How does this kid get an offer from the Vols to play RB and Chase Hayden doesn't?

Something isn't right here!

this isnt the first year we've seen some questionable commits. cant quite remember if Joc Bruce / Vincent Perry were blueshirts but I know we passed on two very talented but undersized WR who really wanted to wear orange. TJ Rahming and Jalen McCleskey. both put up good numbers this yr - Rahming 700+ yards, McCleskey 800+ yards

True, and teams like GA, LSU etc, will be kicking our ass in 2-3 years.:loco:

We are dropping even if we add a couple 4*.

Probably not as far as you're thinking though. Teams are filling up and we are still top 10.

Definitely dropping no matter what.

I think it will be outside the top 15. As is, this class would have finished 19 and 20 the last two years. Major additions needed to be inside top 15.

Offer list is a better way to judge. Most of Butch's 3 stars have good offer lists. There are a few exceptions though

That still assumes everyone has the same, equally valid evaluation criteria. I'm okay with 'better' as you said, but there isn't a right way to judge. It's still a projecting with a lot of error looking forward. Even the NFL can't predict for a draft. That's what makes it interesting.

We are 9th on Rivals.

Penn state, USC should jump us.

I'm not sure how many Clemson and ND can take but they should rise. Miami could jump us. Auburn maybe. UCLA maybe.

Stanford has plenty of space left but are a ways behind us.

We are gonna finish around 15 and there's not a huge gap in 11-19 iyam.

Talent seems to be distributed differently this year. Bama and Ohio state classes as is would have finished 1 last year. Ohio state only has 19 commits.

We are gonna finish better than 19-20.

Possibly. If you look at average star ratings the difference can be fairly significant IMO unless it is just a small class.

Bama is just unreal right now.

Clemson and Stanford might not jump us based on how many they take but both classes are elite.

There is a reason that no recruiting services use average star ranking. If you booted our 7 worst recruits it would appear to make our class better by average star ranking and we wouldn't drop a single spot as Rivals only counts the top 20. But 27 commits > 20 commits. We still have the best 20, we just have 7 additional players.

Talking about average star ranking is moving the cheese.
