LSU has 2 5* and 15 4* recruits

while

I think somewhere on the site they explain their rankings, but not all guys with the same * ranking are =

For example, the #40 overall player and the #99 overall player are both 4*, but the #40 player has more points. The stars are just a guide, what is more important is the points.

Sounds about right for the typical love Bama gets from everything that has to deal with college football

I thought they only count the top 20, but if we have guys in the 101-250 the jump, we could pass them. Either way this is a top 5 class, with a potential #1 class in 2014, the future of the program is just fine.

Based on Bama's success on the field, Rivals must be correct.

Elaborate on how Bama's success on the field affects the ratings of players that haven't stepped on a college campus yet. I'm all ears on this one.

Same with 3 stars.

This thread has been the victim of 2 drive by shittings. Two people came into this thread to make a shitty post and never come back to deal with the responses.

Not just Bama, look closely at the other schools. I'm completely puzzled at how they come up with their total points.

That's called coaching.
We could have 4 5* and still be behind bama.
