‘23 AL DL Hunter Osborne (Alabama commit)

Do 8% of 3 stars get drafted or are 8% of all draftees 3 stars?

8% of 3 stars get drafted

20% of 4 stars
50% of 5 stars

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

Sure. Nobody ever said they mean everything. Even 3*s get drafted 8% of the time.

They simply have the greatest correlation to both individual and team success. Every champion for the last 20+ years has been a part of the BCR Club. Undeniable success.

Statistics are statistics and numbers are numbers. 8% sounds dismal, but let's talk real numbers. out of the 32 first round picks in 22' there were more 3 stars than 5 stars. That would be 9 to 8. 4 stars did better, there were 12. So I have no problem celebrating 4's and 5's but until you find out if your 3 stars were in the misevaluated group or not it is silly to get too worked up. Too many late bloomers and guys that had to play behind other quality guys, especially like now, before they play their Sr season to declare defeat. That is especially true for those guys tabbed by power 5 programs. Bet those numbers are better than 8%. Even better for 3 stars from top 30 p5 teams, and those are the numbers we should be studying. Not going to match 4's and 5's as a category, but individual team success might get close to be competitive and I am only interested in one.

Well guess what? Obviously, different scenario because I was a mediocre music guy back in the day, not an athlete, but I wanted to go to another SEC school way out of state when I was making my college decision and they gave me a killer deal. Really wanted to go there. When my parents and I sat down and made the college decision, though, they wanted UT and their arguments about what UT offered couldn’t be beat. I went to UT and it was the best decision I’ve ever made, looking back. I’m just saying that having the parents definitely means a lot.

Is he leaning Clemson? Does he have a date set?

his parents can commit to UT, but he can kick rocks

Waiting for the Rodney Garner is an elite recruiter thing to kick in.

 

[BigorangeBoy]

Wonder how Peter Woods picking Clemscum affects this.

We need to put together a package deal to get the Trussville Two. Not a clue what that might be. Only an hour shorter drive than Clemson but you have to fight Nooga instead of Atlanta. IF IF IF the parents are really strongly in our camp, I hope the kid gets the IF Momma ain't happy concept down. Used to drive pretty close to his school driving from Guntersville to Birmingham. Interstate all the way to both schools.

I would rather win that battle and get the kid to choose Tennessee as well.

Texas and Clemson I presume

 

[bignewt]

He has nothing else to prove to you lol

 

[butchna]

Not interested in tricking them here. Just sucks that other programs get the player when the family prefers them.

8% of 3 stars get drafted

20% of 4 stars
50% of 5 stars

Does this mean 22% of drafted players were 2 star or lower??

 

[WilliamDuVOL]

Does this mean 22% of drafted players were 2 star or lower??

No, they are just saying that out of those three classifications, that is how many out of each group get drafted. The amount of 3 star players drafted vastly outweighs the number of 4 and 5 star players drafted, solely because there are so many more of them.

A quarter million to each player should do the job

The draft usually targets BASICALLY 2 classes, kids 3 and 4 years out of HS with a few outliers. The services have about 30 5 stars, and 250-300 4 stars EACH YEAR, so there are in excess of 400 4&5 stars to complete a roughly 250 player draft. So how does a 3 star ever get drafted? Over rated 4 stars?? Underrated 3 stars??

I could see it. I just think this is one we win in the end.

It is interesting that we have a lot of EDGE, but only a single DL that's a 250lb 3* committed... Crazy, I'd have thought by now we'd have 1-2 true DL committed... but yeah Garner supposed to be the GOAT, so why aren't they lining up to come and play?
