It's interesting how their main link goes to the industry index score and not their score.

They really tout the industry ranking and 247 also defaults to the composite now. I wouldn’t have a problem with it if they would both at least drop ESPN. They really don’t give a frick and their rankings are not reliable. On3’s industry rankings only give them 5-10% weight, but they don’t even deserve that. And Rivals isn’t much better at this point. They exist on their past rep alone. Neither have the networks of evaluators to keep up today.

If you want a balance, take On3 and 247’s rankings and average those. Those are the legitimate services today.
