re: Cool/interesting chart: How each Super Bowl starter was ranked in HS

The dead horse beaten again......
1) more 5 stars (by percentage) are in league than 4 stars, more 4 than 3, and so on..... (By percentage). However there are a lot of 3 stars in league because out of the hundreds or so of 3 stars if only 5% make it that is more than all of the 5 stars.
2) 5 stars have more raw ability, so you have a better chance of making a great player. The old can't make chicken salad out of chicken s-"* adage.... But even if you start with chicken it still takes effort to make the salad in that analogy
3) there are always exceptions where kids are underrated

All this to say the obvious. Given a choice between a 5 star or a 4 star you always want the 5, unless there is a huge compelling reason to take 4 over 5 (like 5 star just got arrested for a string of felonies)
