This is one of the most faulty arguments there is out there.

You do realize there are only about 300 total 4* and 5* guys per recruiting class, and over 3000 prospects that are rated 2* and 3* per recruiting class, correct?

Of course there are going to be as many get drafted, hell there should be far more get drafted that were 2* and 3* recruits because of sheer numbers.

Now you pick out those guys out of the 3,000 per year that are going to "make it" and I'm sure Dooley and every other coach in the country would gladly offer them scholarships.

From a percentage standpoint far more players rated 4* and 5* out of high school make it to the NFL than 2* and 3* guys. And it's not even close.

Actually, you're argument is the faulty one.

How many people get drafted or make it to the League each year wise guy?

By your dumb logic only 4-5* guys would make it to the NFL

LOL Thank you for posting this! That guy is completely lost. I think the comprehension and discussion was too in depth for him to follow.

:good!: I know. It's basic common sense and not hard at all to follow. Can't believe people are struggling with this. Maybe that chart the OP posted will help them follow along a little better.

Funny, the stats here doesn't contain actual draft info. It just says 'odds of getting drafted'. The stats are about becoming an All-American, not getting drafted.....

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that if you're an All American, you're probably gonna get drafted... Sorry man but the raft you're on is sinking. Facts are facts.

I don't think I'm communicating the point. This guy seems to be only concerned about the amount of stars, and that only 4-5 star guys are worth having on your team.

so, out of 100%, a five star has a 6.7% chance of being an all american, a four star has a 1.8% chance, and a three star has a .6% chance. You mean to tell me out of 100% possiblity that 6.1 percent is huge. You must be a stock broker.

My raft is not sinking, you idiots just aren't very good with #'s. Now if the difference was like 30% or more, then I'd say you were on to something. Besides the stats were for becoming an All-American, and original argument was about being drafted. The chart says there were 93 all-americans in 2009, I think somewhere around 220 get drafted. *Note the chart says that in a 5 year span there 13,447 all-americans, yet only 93 in 2009. What happened there? was there missing info, or did you just whip this up in excel?

despite the other errors, apparently you struggle with reading comprehension as well...

I don't really care how you slice it but we'll be dancing in the streets of Memphis after awesome victories in the Liberty Bowl if our yearly trend indicates signing more 2-3 stars than anything else. I don't care if Vince Lombardi is running the program.

I think that under the conditions that we faced this year we are going to have a great recuriting class. I will take a victory at the Liberty Bowl this year and one from the outback bowl next year and then a victory in one of the BCS bowls the following year. As they say in the moive "What about Bob?" Its baby steps first, one at a time. :peace2:
