For those of us late(r) arrivals, would be nice to have a list of the kids still in play for the big Texas schools and their commonly-used short-hand abbreviated names that get used all the time.

Following up on the nicknames (great idea) I don’t think the recruit’s real name should even be listed. Only nicknames. That way only cool guys like us will know who it is and no outsiders can tell. 

Reports are coming in that Brocktoon dominated that Rivals camp and I hear Fingers is going to take all 5 official visits.

Possibly notation of his commited status:

 hard commit and shut it down

  medium commit and taking visits

soft commit and possible decommit candidate 

Or something to that effect.

Would you guys see value in adding a simple page dedicated to which recruits signed for which class and on what day + star rating and a link to their thread or that class years thread? 

would this also apply to basketball, baseball, or any other sports?

I think we wanna start with football - Basketball could make sense, but I'm not sure we have as many members plugged into that recruiting process. If we have people to maintain it, just making a different sport page should be pretty straightforward based on what we do for football

We'll have a group of people that can help - just don't want any randos being able to edit it though. 

So rosters + recruits for football to start is what we'll do. Links to their respective threads and a link to the tweet/video of their commitment. 

I don't really like the idea of stars, do we want to come up with something else exclusive to surlyhorns how we rank them?

Bags of cash as a ranking system, the more secx3 offer, the more bags for the rating.

Is this board trying to be another texaggy where there is a gotdam thread for everything?  What’s the matter with one gotdam megathread?

no, the megathread is the primary source - this will be more of a reference page only

A good ranking system would be the 20-80 scale that's used to rank baseball prospects. A score of 50 would be considered average, with each 10-point move in either direction representing one standard deviation. 99.7% of all players fall within three standard deviations on a normal distribution, hence 20 and 80 as the cutoffs. Every prospect gets a current and a future score for each of five "tools" (hence, a five-tool player). So an individual profile would look something like:

Sample RB - Burst: 55/65, Power: 30/40, Speed: 65/75, Vision: 60/70, Athleticism: 50/60 - Overall score of 57

It's easier to break down than an opaque 'star rating', and also doesn't force you to give each player a unique rank. If you have one superstar, you give out one 80 score. If you happen to have ten, you can given them all 80 scores as well.

I’ll withhold commentary until after y’all get it going, but I like this idea a lot as long as it’s not open to all of us peons to comment

So we couldn't go on the thread and say all our running back recruits remind us of Jamal Charles.

In addition to suggesting who each recruit looks like, I'll also gladly cherry-pick gifs supporting my interpretation of each recruit's weaknesses (but only when those weaknesses are directly belied by the statistical record).

I mean, it's fine. I just think (along with lots of other people who have showed their support) that it's missing something that makes it unique, like, say, nicknames. 

I can see the Van Fillinger profile just fine, but wouldn't it be cooler if it just said "FINGERS"? Anyways, great job guys.
