OK. How they are rated was the question

I guess my inference was their ratings are overrated at those positions. Our biggest OL returns in recruiting have come with recruits with 3 stars. We had a 5 star DE transfer who couldn't stay healthy enough to get on the field, and when he was on the field, he barely made his presence known. Then you get a guy like Kyle Kennard, who wasn't even among the top 50 recruits in GA, end up being one of the best players in the country at any position...although for USCminor :mad:

I don't know if I should be excited about this young man or not. I guess we are gonna find out. I am still waiting to hear about the big ol' war daddies that we desperately need to clog up the middle on the defensive front.

There were hard things in EE but the dread of facing those Physics tests when they were just sadistic for no good reason was definitely weed-out games. Of course the modern student apparently doesn't have to deal with this kind of person

You can thank US News & World Report for that change. Retention rate and professor ratings are a big part of being at the top of those lists.

Ain't mad at it one bit he has alot of experience coming in scored apparently well PFF ratings for pass rush and overall. We obviously need more across the DL still need 1 or 2 more Edge guys and at least 2 more bigger 290-300+ Interior DL guys

I don’t know how many players are in the portal willingly, but a lot aren’t. It looks like most of those “cut” players don’t find a chair when the music stops. Since the portal goes both ways, that means that FIU, East Carolina, Temple, UMass, and all those MAC and Mountain West schools are saying “no thanks”.

Yes, I think a good percentage are moving up or down to their talent level. And then some are unhappy, some are shown the door, and some are chasing the big bucks.
Brave new world.

I hated losing Singleton but we’ve picked up some good football players in the portal. We’ve done good hopefully Brent Key keeps working that magic and brings in a few more studs. This dude can recruit and bring in studs from the portal.
