Coaches give 0 shits about stars. If our coaches were pulling up 247 to look for who to offer they shouldn't have jobs.


Not that I think they give a crap about stars, but I don't think the recruiting services should be underestimated or we should think no coach ever looks at them. There were 1.1 million kids who participated in football last year in America. There is no way any coach, even the best, can know all the recruits all the time. I'm sure some do look and see who is trending or look up videos on the sites.

I agree that we can't expect our recruiting staff to play Santa Claus and visit every kid in the country. That being said, if a kid has interest in a particular school, he will do things to attempt to garner the staff's attention, I.e. going to camps, sending in game film, Junior Dat, etc.

If a kid makes no effort to reach out to a program, it seems likely that the staff wouldn't bother to commit several hours to evaluation.

I'm not saying they don't use it as an information source. But they don't use the services rankings and star system.

The OP wants them to go down the rankings and find every 5 star rated by a different non-coaching staff and offer without watching film or evaluating them.

That's some larry Coker shite
