I'm not convinced Hookfin is going to pan out.  The reason I feel this way is because I've spent most of my life in the weight room and I can tell when someone is going to be a hard gainer, and he fit

He's actually #1, it's just taking him a while to get there.

He seems to be appropriately paid. aggy D is currently top 20 in only his first year and they’ve got some good players coming in. He’s solely responsible for stealing Brian Williams from us.

Those idiots think being a 330 pound fatty as a 17 year old is a positive because he’s already ‘SEC’ size. Hookfin gets criticized by those mouth-breathers because he’s not walking around with 50 pounds of bad weight.

No, he like Owens are getting criticized because the internet isn’t behaving the way they want it too. A rating service isn’t coming out with Luigi 64 class A ratings that put us with the 12th worst class in the bdf. If you question everything you gain nothing, the aggy way.

It is becoming obvious they care more about recruiting perceptions that wins on the field.

Becoming? It has been this way for a long time. The intensity has gone up recently because it is currently the only way aggy can measure themselves against Texas. They truly believe the 75 million bought them recruiting dominance now and forever over the “durn sips,” and their collective meltdown just reinforces that. They really and truly care more about recruiting perception (versus tu) than their actual on field performance. It is fucking hysterical.

I like the argument that there is no consistency in how players are ranked.  Of course there's not, we're talking about ranking thousands of high school football players from all across the country playing against different levels of competition.  Anyone with a brain knows that there is no way to be consistent in how the rankings are distributed.

We joke a lot about their echo chamber but this rankings update shows just how true it is. 

The number of aggy saying they're canceling a sub from 247 all because one of our recruits got a good rating is astounding. 

And of course, they're all saying they'll switch to texags, a source of information unafraid to feed them exactly the narrative they want to hear, regardless of how much it flies in the face of reality.

Just goes to show that looch really does know his audience.  Don't worry about accuracy or objectivity, just scream ags are best and sips are worst and those third grade minds will eat it up (and must importantly keep $ flowing).

I’ve been telling y’all this. 

Taylor Hamm: it’s your time. Your alma mater needs you. Pull yourself up out of the shit heap of life. You’re not the hero they want right now, you’re the hero they need! You know what to do.

Looking at the aggy board, apparently this kid is projected as a Safety, doesn't have much film at CB, and ran a 4.74 at the Opening so he sounds like the perfect aggy take.

Bama and LSU boards thought he was a stud. But yeah, probably not a corner.

I meant team rankings. We probably stay around 7. aggy stays at 3. Who cares.

There is no reason to worry about good press for aggy based on Jimbo's "honeymoon" class. I have it on good authority that the 2019 NCAA football season will in fact be played.

Where there's no consistency is their logic and outrage.  Half of our players dropped in rankings (no problem with that).  A lot of their players rose in the rankings (of course that's how it should be).  Morons.

Aggy gonna sue 247 for mental anguish, emotional trauma, and loss of enjoyment of life due to grossly subjective rankings criteria that is the only thing 13th fans care about.

247 should file for divorce from covering aggy football and just pay alimony to aggy fans. It will be easier that way.

I'm so confused. NSD2 is anticlimactic now. These bumps won't change anyone's class rankings so why do they care so much? You'd think they'd want Herman to take shitty overrated players.

We’ve literally moved up an down the team rankings between 6 and 8 every time a service updates their rankings. 

But I am with you on the not giving a shit. It does crack me up how much people react to rankings updates, esepecially after NSd1 now. I don’t view Jordan Whittington, Tyler Owens or any aggy commit any differently now than I did before rankings updates.

Movement in some arbitrary ranking system with no constants nor consistent formulae for measurement, up or down by a thousandths of a point, matter to nobody except 9.95ers and institutional aggy.

that Kevin McDonald character is somebody's lawyer, for God sakes.

Right now,  he is somewhere, sitting in his office, fuming that a teenager named "Owens"....whom he has never met but who has had the temerity to "commit to the sips"...received what he considers to be an altogether ridiculous score increase from an internet rating service. 

Kevin McDonald is EXACTLY who we all imagined him to be. 

aggy brass is rife with Kevin McDonalds. ...this is the difference between every other fan base and their attendant lunatics and aggy, who celebrate theirs and promote them to be John Sharp.

And remember, the guy has never seen any of the top recruits play. He is fuming over something that he knows nothing about.

The point about a 4 decimal ranking system is also big. 

How do they arrive at such numbers?  What makes a prospect a .9132 vs a .9146 or .9098?

2 decimals would probably be the most to be used to differentiate. So basically a 0-100. 

By averaging three different numbers

It’s a result of the formula they use to create the composite. All the sites individually grade on a scale of 100, except Rivals, which uses possibly the dumbest grade ranking system you could think of for a recruiting site.
