Explain this to me...... Lsu loses Kenny Bell to alabama and rivals jumps alabama from three to number one, but lsu picks up montgomery who is (if not mistaken) rated higher overall than bell is....

Rivals is owned/runned by Alabama supporters...It is all bull-shite! They move players to 5 star from 4 star when it helps there cause, and move 5 star players to 4 star players when they sign with somebody other than Alabama...It has been a riculous trend for the last 2-3 yrs of recruiting...slowly loosing whatever credibility they ever had.

LOL at the excuses. Whether a Bama supporter owns Rivals or not (and nobody knows, we say other team's alum's own it, some say USC's alums own it), no players have been changed in star status today (if anything, the last time they did it hurt us with the huge Bonds drop) and the Rivals team rankings more so than any other go by a numerical formula and it wasn't altered today.

I and others have been saying we were gonna take the top spot since allstar weekend, and it was actually closer than expected with us not getting Massie and you getting Montgomery.

Both teams racked up today and added to their future, as did most of the SEC

They did sign one more player than we did, but rivals did not jump bama to number one until bell announce and we already had montgomery...This makes no sense whatsoever..

Kenny Bell's defection was basically like adding 2 recruits to our list..

How many SEC teams were in the top 25? Was Vandy the only one left out?

FWIW I would consider avg stars better than overall points. That puts FLA 1 LSU 4 and BAMA 6 get what you need and get the best at it.

I don't believe the rivals Bama bias but all this doesn't matter until the recruits get on campus. And they can gloat all they want, but they will not be number one after the revised rankings, just like last year.
