I hope you didn't think I was one of them. I really do find it interesting. I do also feel that there are a lot of people that don't understand that there is a vast difference in 3*'s.

JMO, but a 3* going to Austin Peay...nine times out of ten is probably not even in the same realm as a 3* going to most P5 programs. At least the great, good or even decent P5 programs.

Once again. I find the whole star rating system, and more so, the way people see it differently, very fascinating.

Most have shown interest, but like I said, those numbers were brought and discussed several times. Put a lot of thought into the true range of 3 star percentages over the last year or so, I was just discussing your post and hadn't had a single negative thought towards 85.

No clue where all that came from.

Think Jay Graham is nearly impossible. His role at aTm couldnt be offered here.

My problem with graham was that as a player, all I think he was truly Heisman quality as a back, he developed a habit I'm running toward the line and then stopping and dancing. I hope he's not teaching his charges to do that now.

Me??? The bump reference is important to the %. The 4star accuracy is upped because of the bump.

You misunderstood the meaning of the bump factor.

Assumed why I wasn't interested in the stats.

Assumed I included you in "painting the class" even tho I never came close.

And assumed what I said to baldy was directly related to your intentions of the stat post.

You ever consider not going straight redneck fight mode and just asking what someone meant, if you aren't sure?

You seem pretty upset. Banging out multiple lined, long posts. And came at me pretty aggressively from the jump.

I took your “interesting” tag at the end of your response to BB as a shot at my post. Apologies if I read that wrong.

For sure. There is a huge range of 3 Stars. And there are literally thousands of them out there.

Fortunately, there are literally hundreds of them every year that end up being productive, valuable FBS players.

The hope (and belief for the most part) is that our Staff does a good job of identifying the 3 Stars that are going to develop into something.

Man, looking at that video and seeing Savion Williams in the back of the line...I thought for sure coming in he was an instant plug and play type with all we lost last year. Boy...was I wrong! Assuming he redshirted this year?

he did...bodes well for next year with Simmons redshirting too.

And since no one can start at the top from the worst fkking team in the history of the school, would you agree that the only way up and out is to be a better evaluator of talent and better at coaching up underrated or overlooked talent, and better at understanding how to win SEC football games than the more "star-heavy" teams that you must face? I mean, in real life. And hit the home runs when you can.

The "interesting" was something from sleegro last night.

But came at you aggressively? By not mentioning or quoting you? Or having any negative words toward you, at all??
Well, until your post. And even then I tried laugh a little despite it being completely unprovoked.🤷‍♂️

That’s silly.

I see quite a few comments like this on here and it’s just emotional whining. The class is good to very good regardless of this guy or that guy. The truth here is there’s one kid in this class that matters more than all the others and that’s Harrison Bailey. He’s in the boat and will be on campus and in class next month. That’s what matters most in this class. The rest of the class will only go as far as he takes them.

Could not agree more

HB is this class. If he’s as good as advertised we are back. Like for real back contending for SEC titles.

If he isn’t we’re fighting for 6-8 wins, relevance, and Pruitts job

HB is the class
