FWIW, the title of the video is what a 5 star visit looks like, not what a visit looks to a 5 star. So no, the video does not have him as a 5 star.


You're reaching here just to be pedantic. If you really are sincere, then your logic is flawed on multiple levels.

If the purpose of the video is to "show what a five-star visit looks like", it fails simply by definition: there was no five star visiting, and therefore we don't know what the visit looks like if he were a five star.

And if your response to that is that the visit would have looked the same, then that undermines your argument that the intent of the video is to show what a "five-star visit" looks like, since if the visits look the same, that renders the "five star" distinction meaningless altogether.

In this context, "What a 5 star visit looks like," the recruit is telling you his trip to LSU was a five star visit. If he had gone to A&M maybe he would have said what a 2 star visit looks like. This is just basic English. He might have meant something else, but this is what he wrote and the video supports it.

Second, if I were you, I would never, EVER use the word logic EVER again.
