3 star verbals - 2009 vs 2010

Granted its only Scout but at this time last year we had only 13 verbals and only 3 of them ranked under 4 stars (with 4 FIVE star players)
This year we've got 20 and 12 are less than 4 stars....
take it for what its worth.....I've never totally bought into the star system.

It is usually better to look at a players offer list. And this season has had a few players commit that make you say "wtf is Miles seeing in them that EVERY other big name school is missing"

I've noticed that Scout is sucking this year in their evaluations. Not to mention that the player's measurables are outdated too this year.

How many of them were 4-stars this time last year? People do this every year.
I would be willing to bet a whole bunch of them were not yet evaluated, or were 3-stars, this time last year, and only became 4-stars later in the year. Plenty of the guys on board right now will later become 4-stars most likely.
Take a look at Rivals rankings - they already have us with 12 4-star guys and haven't evaluated the Juco OT yet. That's a pretty damn good start.
Ever watch the movie "Groundhog Day"? We relive the same conversations every recruiting season.

Scout only has 250 players ranked above 3 stars right now, while Rivals has about 330.
With the Rivals formula, both Zach Lee and Tharold Simon are 4-star locks, and they haven't evaluated Mathieu yet (or switched Gibson to athlete).
The ratings will be interesting to compare on August 17th, when Scout updates their site.

This class is probably going to wind up very similar to 2008's class. Reed::Tolliver, Allen::Clement. Now we just need Luc::Peterson.
