Their just not thought of as athletic enough.

Its because these kids are ranked based on pro potential. Kickers and specialists aren't easy to project to the pros. Even the best ones in college don't do anything in the pros
If ranking for college only and leaving out the pro potential, there would be a huge amount of 4 and 5* kids. College success is much easier to project and at that point scheme would play into the projections and cause kids committed to certain schools to be bumped majorly. Imagine if Kirk Merritt were ranked solely based on his skill set in the Oregon offense. He'd be a 5* all day long. The pro potential add in keeps the projections down and takes scheme and the school kids are committed to out of the equation(theoretically)
