[QUOTE="spartansstink, post: 130753340, member: 1488840"] Please stop replying as if you are some pseudo-recruiting expert. You aren't and you aren't fooling anyone. You are just a slightly less irritating but just as ignorant hack as Pride 304 there Pride of Texass. One who thinks himself a lord among wits who is really just a wit among lords. But perhaps you are brain damaged. Perhaps you truly cannot understand even the simplest of things. So, I'll give you a primer of how this shill works. Take notes, there will be a test on this... If one is going to "rate" things to see how they compare one can do it through norm referencing or criterion referencing. Norm referencing results come out like a big bell curve. Some high, some low, most in the middle as you compare each to each other. This doesn't work well for "star" rankings but this is really what they do. Instead, they pretend to criterion test or rate them on a particular set of criteria that must be observed. In this case, a set of recruiting "experts" sit down and (supposedly) watch hours of, get this, "highlight tapes" and then rate each person on a set of criterion such as size, speed, etc. They will also pretend to use other factors. Now, you want to know how its all BS? 1. They are fake. They simply look at who has allegedly recruited them and give them stars based on that. Don't believe it? Simply look at what athletes Bama, Clemson, Georgia have allegedly recruited - automatic 4 stars if it can be confirmed, 5 if all three recruit. A 3 star automatically if one of them, as you saw with the fake account. All that is left now if the number to assign. Say 92 if Bama, Tennessee, and say a WVU all have recruited, and 85 or so if just a Tennessee and WVU, etc. 2. If it is criterion referenced, like they say, then there can't be a discrepancy in scoring. You get an 85 or a 93 or a 100 based on meeting the criteria set upon beforehand. You can't have a player a Rivals 82, 247 88, ESPN 84, etc. That "composite" 247 score is the biggest BS indicator. 3. Its all designed to get you to part with your money. That's why Texas always gets these 4 and 5 star recruits; Texans are stupid with their money and always have hopes that this year is the year they get back to what they never ever really were - a serious, repetitive contender for National Championships. Keep selling them the crack, they'll keep buying. [/QUOTE]
