Recruiting conspiracy????

I know most are sick of points and class rankings. And does it really matter????
Anyway there appears to be an error in the final calculation of Alabama's class at 2,786 points. The error in favor of Bama is sufficient to vault them to Rivals #1 class.
Using the Rivals formula, I arrived at 2,746 points for Bama's final class. This would put them second behind LSU which sits at 2,762 points. Another poster on the mainboard came to the same exact conclusion.
Somehow Bama got 40 points added to their score outside of the Rivals formula to help them repeat as the #1 class.
If you're interested in following this, checkout the mainboard and the "Team Rankings Formula" thread by BobbyBurton.

Anybody that has LSU #3 has lost credibility.

Thanks trojan ace. Good info. Now what is the word on JJ. Has he been counted yet?

Yes.
I don't have time except to tell you this much. I am going out, and this has been a loooong frickin' day. And 'SC is still waiting on another 4*.
Go do your own research. I'll check back for your conclusions later.

JJ is counted, and the numbers dont add up. probably an error on our end but from what we know they dont add up.

They have him committed but not signed. Not sure if they are including him or not.
