Chark, Honey Badger and Hester

Honey Badger

TM7 was a 4 star by the end of his senior year

I thought Mo was a 3star WR IIRC

Ok, I was wrong. Rivals had Mo as a 3 star, #58 at his position, and #21 in LA.

TM was a top 200 player. At his size and for how early he committed, that's not overlooked.

Sorry Skullhawk I accidentally downvoted you. Thanks for the clarification. Funny how some of these prospects are 2 and 3 star recruits then when a big name school offers them they jump up a notch. Tre White was not highly thought of then when LSU offered him and he went to some camps his stock went through the roof.

Mo Claiborne was listed as a 3* athlete

Only on rivals at the end did honey badger get 4 star .

And? They were all unranked at some point. TM is not the guy to throw into the Hester lore this board is obsessed with. You realize these threads happen EVERY time LSU gets a 3* commitment. It stinks of insecurity.

No one knows how McMath is going to turn out at the college level. He got his offer at camp and he's physically mature for his age. I'll go with those as positives.

These services have a handful of guys ranking these players. They rely on college coaches and contacts on a lot of their determinations. I don't think that's a negative mark against them.
They've gotten better at identifying the elite. Check the 2014 rankings and the list of early entries for the 2017 draft.

Guys will always slip through the cracks. Too many guys to evaluate, physical maturity is all over the place at those ages, camps are given too much weight over actual play, etc.
