'24 TN WR Amari Jefferson (Alabama commit)

Nothing burger. Just like Russell and Bates, I’m sure Jefferson asked for them to be removed to try and keep the mystery alive about his landing spot. Too late though.

They should just stop doing them, or at least close it once a kid sets a commitment date.

I don’t care enough about “the surprise” so I’m agnostic about whether they close them at a certain date or not, but either way I feel like we’ve seen a trend of these crystal balls being removed lately and kids asking for them to be removed so I wouldn’t be shocked if something happened otherwise kids might just start lying to people if they care enough about “the surprise”.
 
Yes, Georgia high schools produce more star football players than Texas high schools PER CAPITA.

Meanwhile, Texas high schools produce more NFL players and more FBS players than Georgia or any other state. (These facts are why I pushed back against your earlier comments that Texas HS football is overrated, and Georgia and Florida HS football is more talent rich than Texas HS football.) We’re just looking at it from slightly different perspectives.

We need a meanful study of number of number of HS top 300 for the two states and then the number drafted 4 years later.... that should give us a clue.

Not really. You can’t compare an 18 year old fresh out of HS, to a 21-22 year CB old that’s had 3 years of college level coaching. That’s why people who use the argument well he was a 3* and got drafted in the first round look crazy. The only way to look at this is by which state produces the most highly ranked players year in and year out. And Georgia smokes Tennessee by a long shot.

The NFL study would validate or not the HS rankings. See which states players hold up the rankings. A study for all states would be fun.

I just don’t see how you can say that. Like I said, on one hand you have an 18 year old kid fresh out of HS v a 21-22 year old that’s has 3 years of college coaching. Think about it. It would be like comparing Brandon Staley to Bru McCoy.

The studies are 4 years apart to see if the 18 year olds were accurately ranked coming out of HS. NOT this years HS vs THIS years college.

If this years draft had 20 from Texas but had 40 top 300 4 years earlier they were mis-evaluated.
