What’s up world, my name is Tyjon Lindsey but most people call me “T-Wayne” and this is my recruit diary. I attend Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas, the reigning defending national champions. At Gorman we have a 100% graduation rate and 96% of the students go on to play division one sports. I am set to graduate in 2017 and I’m currently ranked as the No. 3 receiver in the nation and the 18th-ranked player in the nation. While I am mostly thought of as a receiver, I also play cornerback.

I am 5-9 and 176 pounds. I just want to let you all know that size doesn’t matter. As long as you’re lionhearted and you have confidence in yourself, nothing else matters in this game. Height doesn’t measure heart and nobody can tell you that you don’t have what it takes because you don’t have the prototypical size. I play with my heart on my sleeve, I give everything I have and leave it all on the field.

I love to play receiver because it’s a position like no other. You have to have special qualities to be a great receiver. I feel I have excellent hands and I am versatile when the ball is in my hands. I’m a little speedster that can use my speed to break away from the defensive back. I am quick, unpredictable, and I’m a team player.

I currently have 10 scholarship offers and I am extremely blessed and thankful for every single one of them. I have been given an opportunity by those 10 schools to live out my dream and I appreciate all of them. At the moment I am uncommitted and do not have a leader or a set date to commit. I want to enjoy the process and see where it takes me because I only get to do this once.

Damn university of auburn.

[trout54 55]

hey. at least he caught it, and corrected the error. kudos to him! WDE.

[sogaaufan 27]

We seem to have pretty good luck with these "University of Auburn" kids. He can call us whatever he wants to as long as he chooses us. He can get straight with the name later.

[Mikey 16,540]

He corrected it faster than Pat Dye did.

Dumb question but all the sites show him as 4* how come this topic shows him as 5*

This kid is electric in the open field. He is from Beaverton, OR. I doubt our chances are great. He is in Oregon's backyard. They like speed players alot.

Because thread titles are based on the composite ranking. RIR put all that in the OP. He does not list the composite ranking because that info is provided in the 247sports link. In the link look for the 247 Composite info. That's where your thread title stars come from.

Also composite 5*s are strictly a rank average of all 4 sites. 42.5 or better is a composite 5*. For TL 24+64+27+27=142. 142/4=35.5= composite 5*.

Good question ... good answer.

As for the OP edit, just providing some info for the site.

How is 35.5 higher than 42.5? What am I missing here? Looks to me like he's a composite 4*

[AuburnNTexas 7,124]

I knew it was a composite but I didn't realize that with all being 4 *s that the composite could come out as a 5*. So basically because they were all high 4 *'s you can get a 42.5 and be a 5* composite. Thank you for the explanation. I have learned something new today.

Above ellitor states that his average is 35.5. How is that a 5*?

Come on Mikey, use "new" math and it comes out 42.5.

[mustache eagle 2,388]

35.5 th best recruit (on average) is closer to the number 1 best recruit on average than 42.5 th best recruit

[Mikey 16,540]

35.5 th best recruit (on average) is closer to the number 1 best recruit on average than 42.5 th best recruit

Is that how it works? Ok then, thanks.

[ellitor 33,062]

Yes. I should have said the lower the rank number average means the higher rated player. Our Derrick Brown was 6+9+9+17=41. 41/4=10.25 rank average. 10.25 rank average is better than 42.5. Why they have a formula that makes 42.5 the cutoff, I don't know. I just know it is & have checked it against star ratings many times.

Here's one for ya. A player can be ranked 1, 1, 1, 168 & would not be a 5* despite being the #1 player in the nation on 3 sites. 1+1+1+168=171. 171/4=42.75. No sites actual star rankings has no actual bearing on a player's composite star ranking.
