The Blue Board

Dee Liner's new theme song, with the great Axl Rose helping out Tom Petty:

Every year this happens.

Not sure if serious...

Weak.

Shurburtt said earlier that if a QB like Jeremy Johnson were committed to Alabama he would be ranked lower due to the system, so tell me if bama has great coaches and they do, how does this fit your logic?

Like Alonzo mentioned, USC's recruit rankings PLUMMETED, despite good performances at camps and in all-star games.

NcaaAssassinG13 posted this on the USC site today, which details how far down the rankings USC players fell:

Here are the USC Commits that are ranked in their top 247.
The 1st number is their 24/7 ranking.
The number after their name is their composite rank (avg from other sites)
==============
#13 Bigelow #10
#16 Cravens #5
#30 Browne #11
#39 Ramsey #16
#42 McQuay #29
#69 Mitchell #64
#74 Hawkins #66
#85 Issac #49
#83 Rodgers #140*****
#200 Davis #113
#207 Prevot #180
#217 Hutchings #99
=================
(Only Rodgers-1 Trojan out of 12 are ranked better than their composite rank)
Plus 2 recent Trojan de-commits are also ranked lower than composite rank.
#41 Redfield #27
#102 Fitts #89

Now look at all the other players from the west (who are not going to SC -or at least not yet)
that were ranked in 24/7's top 247.

(Primarily California kids, but some Arizona, Oregon, Idaho, Wash)
1st number is 24/7 rank, number after their name is composite rank.
=================
#46 Goodman #50
#77 Luke #139
#82 Baugh #88
#90 Byrd #159
#96 Qualls #117
#123 Daniels #126
#126 LaRue #154
#130 Carrington #201
#134 Ty.Robinson #136
#201 J.Kelly #236
#211 Seisay #429
#218 Foreman #251
#219 Redmond #282
#222 Koehler #337
#224 Quessenberry #373
#226 DJ Martin #388
#235 Palma #316
#237 Cotton #1033
#238 Cormier #254
#239 D.Allen #261
#240 LJ Moore #250

All 21 players in the 24/7's Top 247 (who are not going to USC)
are ranked better than their composite ranking.
Plus...
#22 Tyner #20
#47 Willis #45
#124 TWilliams #110
#138 Newby #128
#152 Robinson #148
#168 Rettig #157
6 western players (also not going to SC) that are ranked lower than their composite
but by less than 15 ranking spots.

Here's the 1 western recruit out of the 28 from the West (that is not going to USC as far as we know,
that is more than 15 ranking spots lower than their composite rank.
#116 Stringfellow #69

I applaud 247 for including the composite rankings - that's a nice feature to help minimize the impact of skewed statistics and bias.

I stopped reading after the complaining about recruits part. I don't give two s***s, you brought it up so I argued back using logic and youve got nothing so now you are deflecting the subject, nice try though.

bump

good one.

Damn bama conspiracy. We make services give bama recruits higher rankings. We make other teams lose to us. We make nfl teams draft our players in the first round. This needs to stop!!
These services have given bama the best recruiting rankings over the last 5 years.
Other teams have given bama (games fixed by rec) 61 wins in 5 years.
And great coaches ( Mac ,les, and Brian) have thrown bcs title games by an average of 22ppg.
It's so obvious. Damn bama bias.

That's a dumber argument than the one about there being a bama bias. Soo, they are evaluating our recruits based on a staff that hasn't coached a lick of football at AU before? Right. Either you're trolling hard or you're a brain donor. I'm hoping its the first...
