When do they update the rest?


Rivals 250 tomorrow.

They start updating everyone else after the 250 starting tomorrow but seem to not finish it until a couple days after. So we could see a few changes tomorrow outside of the rivals 250, but the most will come the in the following days.

Yup.. I laughed at this myself...
I mean AJ mccarron.


Here's all the updates ESPN has on McCarron in his games...

1. Alabama pledge A.J. McCarron completed 17 of 25 attempts (68-percent) for 262 yards and two touchdowns (eight, 14 yards) but St. Paul's fell to Citronelle, Ala. 40-13, al.com reports.


2. Alabama-bound ESPNU 150 quarterback A.J. McCarron completed 11 of 26 passes (42.3-percent) for 141 yards but St. Paul's was held to minus-5 rushing yards in its 34-0 loss at the hands of Vigor, al.com reports.

3. ESPNU 150 quarterback A.J. McCarron, headed to Alabama completed just three passes (out of 17 attempts) for 55 yards and one touchdown as St. Paul's fell to Russellville (Ala.) 41-7, al.com reports.

4. ESPNU 150 quarterback A.J. McCarron completed 10 of 21 passes (47.6-percent) for 139 yards, one touchdown, and one interception Friday night.
But McCarron's legs were key to Saint Paul's 23-16 win over Faith Academy (Mobile, Ala.) writes the Press-Register.
Late in the fourth quarter, he converted a fourth-and-one QB keeper, then scampered 30 yards on a third-and-nine and later dove for just enough yardage to move the chains on a third-and-six.
The confident senior explained, "The running game was kind of struggling. I told coach after that first big run to the right side that I want the ball in my hands."




Doesn't exactly scream "Big Mover Top 100" material to me.

I understand it's harder to put up good numbers when your team sucks around you. But if you're a Top 100 friggin recruit you should make your team better, not look frickin awful (3 for 17???? 3 for 17???? ).


Also, ESPN reported the move to OL for Fluker is best in the long run but he is inconsistent and takes plays off...BIG MOVER!!!!

AJ McCarron wasnt a big mover he was already in the 100 before this update, he actually dropped a few places. If you think Fluker isnt 5 star material you are insane, look at his hightlights. Trent Richardson is a manchild he deserves to be #7.

He deserves not to be anywhere near the Top 100 with the way he's been playing. I mean this is ALMOST as bad as rivals making excuses for Barkley's bad decision making (12 TD to 11 INT) and still keeping him at #1...

Are you kidding me? He's playing OT this year and has been nowhere near 5-star caliber. ESPN said themselves the move is best in the long run but he's inconsistent and takes plays off. Since when is being inconsistent and taking plays off 5-star material? If he's there just for size then hell let's move Josh Williford in the Top 30 while we're at it.

Nobody thinks he's overrated. Best RB in the nation in many people's opinion.

Bama will not end up in the top 5 and I'd put money on that against anybody that wants to.

Well if they keep bouncing guys way up li,ke DJ Fluker they may end up with 3 or 4 5-stars and more great Top 100 4-stars like AJ MCCarron

Mccarron goes to my school and the reason that he is falling is becuase he has no one to pass it to. He lost all of his good receivers last year like Destin Hood, Mark Barron, Louis Watson, and Ivan Matchett, all of whom signed with SEC schools.

Why can't we? You have no idea what guys like Randle and Massie are gonna do. And please save me the "I have a gut feeling" talk.

Abrams better than Mike Ford?


Who the frick said that? If they did they're beyond saving. I do think Conner is as good if not better than Ford though. I watched both against the same defense and Conner looked better imo. That doesn't mean he is head and shoulders better. They are very close when it comes to running the ball. Ford is putting up retarded numbers, but he is playing much less competition as well. They are both great players and I'm happy to have Ford. Just wish we could've had both of them.

So... Basically what you're saying is the only reason he is a ranked starred player is because he had a good surrounding cast? Great players make plays without groups of recievers and oline men that are college bound.
