re: How meaningful are STARS? Player evaluations

i've never understood this angle if you only have 15 five stars and 200 3 stars. then, of course, you will have a higher %. Only 7 have to turn out worth a damn for 50%, where as 100 have to turn out worth a damn for 50%.

yes, but if you have 200 3 *'s (and its probably a lot more than that) and only about 30 5 * you will have way more 3 * pan out. That's what the anti-star gazers always point to , this 5 star flopped and this 2 or 3 star became a star, so there fore star rankigns are meaningless. Its the percentage that matters, not the raw number.

texas is a regular top 5 and they haven't been able to produce

Texas had the #1 class and #1 player in 2002. In 2005 they won the BCS Title. They won 10 games for 9-10 years in a row. They were in the BCS CG in 2009. How is that not producing? You are doing nothing but cherry picking data.
