Dan Hunter is so underrated.

He may be my favorite recruit by the end of the season. This guy is so nasty. Why is he ranked so low?

Recruiting services in Texas slobbering over Mario Edwards (even though they have a reason to).

Do you realize how many times these players are going to be re-ranked before NSD?

His highschool coach just gushed about how good he is, how he is as good as Von Miller was at this stage, how he can put on 50 pounds and still keep his speed, and the fact that he is only 16 years old.
He will be one of 4 or 5 guys in this class that will get huge bumps before the end of the year IMO

because he has a girl's name?

I guess he is a little raw. The film I saw showed incredible athleticism, but not a polished DE. He should probably be a 4-star based on his freakish athleticism, period. We'll see how it pans out.

Rankings have always been as valid as people believed them to be. I believe they are becoming even more of an illusion as recruiting is drastically changing its schedule. We're almost done with our class and these kids haven't even played a senior year of football. It's impossible for the sites to accurately predict for some of these kids.

Will be in rivals 250 before signing day.
However, I thought Trevon Randle was a lock for that too but he never got the bump for whatever reason.

Mario Edwards is number one in Texas and deservedly so. His issue is his weight and whether he will keep his speed. If he slows down and moves to DT - he then becomes the best DT in the country.
Danielle Hunter is number two in Texas - he's a physical beast and definately underrated.
Devonte fields is the best speed rusher in Texas.
Javontee Magee is good, but probably projects as at DT at the next level.
Univ of Texas DE Hassan Ridgeway is terribly overrated.
Michael Starts is a good Offensive Tackle and a piss-poor defensive end.

Hunter comes from a 5A school that played their first game in 2006. It is a new school that has had one winning season (2008 they went 7-4). They went 0-10 in 2006, 1-9 in 2007, 7-4 in 2008, 1-9 in 2009 and 1-9 in 2010. LINK
They are in the same town as one of the state's most successful programs ever, Katy (450-262-18 all time with six state championships).
After the one winning season they did have the football program was disciplined and three coaches were fired amid allegations the three violated UIL and district policies by changing student records and misusing district funds. LINK
Texas is not a state where kids can go to school wherever they want by transferring around but it is a state where it is hard for a new school to start winning. The older established schools throw a lot of weight around so it would not surprise me to look into it a little further and find that Katy had a lot to do with keeping this new program down. The new team in town has one winning season and (BOOM) they go on probation. Katy doesn't want to go down in stature the way Plano High did after Plano East & Plano West get started up. You can thank me later for the Texas High School Football lesson.
This kid has received accolades from across the state but he would be getting more hype if he was playing at a more successful program.
After reading about what the kid's program went through I don't blame him for going OOS.
I bet this kid plays with a chip on his shoulder and gets a bump.
I hope he comes to LSU with the same chip on his shoulder and plays himself into a great one!

he super-raw but he gives great effort. he has a lot to work with but i don't like how he throws his body into the tackle in the film. he will get better at setting up the tackle for better pass rushing moves and play with his hands a lil more.
