He's not officially committing until his all-American game.

Rivals had him listed as a commit for about a day. Then, they changed it, to "high" for LSU - I think they changed it cause he said he wanted to announce at the UA game. Which I like

I know, CSB but my mom came home the other day from Honduras and was all excited because she got a recruit with this humongous guy who was heading to LSU for his visit. It was Bain, both her and my sister spoke well of him.

How does a 3 star get into the AA game? Can someone help me understand the rating and invites a little better?

Only ESPN has him rated as a top-notch player. And ESPN is generally considered the worst of all the recruiting services with their player analysis. We can only hope that in this case, they were right. But keep in mind that this recruiting stuff is not even close to being precise - and not only for recruiting services, but for college coaching staffs as well. So, if Bain becomes a stud at LSU, it shouldn't come as much of a shock to those who feel the need to rank the legitimacy of the various services.

Stop looking at Rivals stars and look at this guy's offer list. There seems to be a consensus among top coaches that this guy is one to get. I will go with the coaches on this one.

Under Armour is partnered with ESPN so I assume they base their invites on ESPN evaluations. I have no clue where US Army gets their evaluations from. Edit: Also, Bain has been playing OL this year as opposed to his natural and recruited position which is DT. Recruiting sites have to base his DT evaluations on his junior film.

yeah, I heard Les and staff rely mainly on ESPN so we may be fricked here.

We'd be a 5 win team if their rankings were accurate.
