We...just...aren't recruiting very well.
Every school has a hogan, or Moore. A kid that the services just miss on. They aren't singling us out (though I will say crabtree being a KSU homer is hilarious)

Well, you're just wrong, I guess.

I agree with Kassanavoid being a 2 star and Burris being a 2 star. However, both were ranked last night and are no longer ranked, that's &@#%ed up. Secondly, Crabby said that Klein was a mid 3 star and was better than Jack Elway just two weeks ago and now he's completely changed his tune. It's pretty lame if you ask me.

You're just frustrated. Klein's only offer was KSU.

That is part of the problem here. If he had an offer from a "name" program he'd be a star higher....for that reason alone. Rivals is lazy.

isn't that how pretty much everything works in life?

Being a Pollyanna is one thing but calling out what you see when you see it is another. We all saw those numbers last night and they are now gone. to call it a glitch is laughable.
I have been in organizations and on sports teams in leagues where we were top dog and we knew as well the advantages we had and how other were screwed around and we said nothing why? Because we liked our curren t position on top and didn't care enough to point out wrongs. We would just snicker as we got calls or whatever. Point is Until those getting bent over care enough to make some noise the status quo will continue.

the rankings thing is weird.

You know what piss me off is Crabby putting that stupid poll out last night to bait us like we were going to be happy with where we sit. That and his whole Klien flip flop really is pissing me off right now.
-
The only thing that is really fishy to me is Klein. Look at his tape and his previous ranking. If he was on Oklahoma's list he'd be a 5.6 rated 3-star, no doubt about it. It's all about offers. If they have an offer from a traditional program their rating jumps regardless of what rivals sees with their own eyes. It's completely biased. Why? Because they have to please the large fan bases to keep them jacked about their teams and keep them paying for their subscriptions. Follow the money trail. That's all it is.

Guys we have offered whose rating is insane:

If we got a commitment from Harper or Blackman I would feel like we just landed the #1 player in the country.

Yet ku's 5'8" WR from TEXAS gets a 3*. If he was a KSU commit they would give him a one star.

Which comes first, the offers or the ratings?(not talking about 5 star players) It's easy to grade 5 stars. Just look and see who is an incredible athletes with skills. After you get past the blatant 5 stars, it gets interesting with the biased ratings based mostly on offers. I was mostly referring to the middle 50-60% with my previous comment.

Who all has been reviewed for rankings so far? Because I was looking at fairly similar schools (not OU, more like VaTech, TTech, etc.), and, well, we're kinda far behind. They have guys that are 3 and 4 stars. Maybe a 5 here and there. But we're averaging 2 stars. Crabby or not, those numbers need to be loads better. We can't depend on diamonds in the rough. We need solid 3 and 4 stars. period.
-
Just so I can get a better picture of things, are these guys underrated to the same degree that Spexarth, Schmidt, Rooker, Handy, Hafferty, and D'Arcy were?

Bassett should be a high 3 star. Klein should be a mid to high 3 star. Burris should be a low 3 star. Childs being a two star is a complete joke. Blackman should be a high 3 star. Harper should be a four star. Kassanavoid is really only the crappy commitment we have.

IMO all three of these guys should have been five stars

This is what I don't understand, what makes you all think that you all are better suited to rank these players than those who do it for a living? Do you think they're rating them lower than they should be rated just to get under your skin?
-
only thing that ticked me off was Crabby telling everyone AFTER seeing Klein in person and AFTER seeing his video..."he's a mid 3-star"...and then in the last 11 days when nothing has happened he drops? LOL.
And the Harper ranking is stupid.
Other than that...no big deal.
-
For every stupid ranking against us there is one for us.
Relax. This season will tell alot about Prince's 06 recruits.

let me know when we get the one offer-4 star like the beaks have been handed the past two years. LOL.

Do you think Rivals is better at evaluating talent than college coaches? If you really meant what you said then there is no reason you should go off of Rivals' rankings either. I'm going off of offers/interest from big schools and what Crabtree said eleven days ago. It doesn't take that much intelligence to be able to determine that Childs should be above a 2 star and that Harper is a 4 star.

I don't think it has dawned on some that maybe, just maybe, our current commits suck.
-
Crazy thought. Maybe if we want players with more stars we should be recruiting better players?

BV: I don't care what your sparq rating is, or your rivals.com rating is, I'm looking for players
recruiting sights in general=worthless except for basketball lol
-
LOL @ this thread. i don't care what your post count is, if you are counting rivals stars for football then you are a cub. I'd have to guess that 90% of the people in this thread are following recruiting for the first time. Don't waste your time people. It is pointless.
