AU-24 3,118 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 ESPN has us 12th. We all know the love ESPN has for AU. Kidding!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUfanaticAU 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Well they dont rate Lawson or Liner as 5 stars like other sites do. Plus we only have 15 recruits as of now which isnt nearly as much as some teams. Just be patient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerFan2014 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Scout is a complete joke. Don't waste your time worrying about it. Nobody has any respect for their rankings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
im4au 44 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 The guy who covers Auburn for Scout seems to have an attitude about us for some reason. He asks questions in ways to encourage negative responses, and I'm sure doesn't defend our kids in star battles. He's been good in the past, but is getting beat up daily on the Scout board. Something changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FHeal 4 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 ... so why do you go there ? Isn't that the lore of them other guys ? The we who's got 15 MNCs... they buy good press by frequenting those who post favorably, and not for those who won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minister of music 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Author Share Posted January 11, 2013 I really don't (per say) go there....just noticed it tonight. kingb84------since when did respect have anything as to a value to a recruit who was not on your team yet???? I thought they were a big joke also to be 12 to 15 places off from other services....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarEagleAU 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I'll think of remove scout ratings on my recruiting list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonefhin 8 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Is this the one that does not factor in JUCO? Maybe that is it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr82b4au 5,568 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 A few things that I have seen in the past: Scout places an emphasis on the number of recruits as much as the quality, they usually do not rate Juco players that high, and they have serval of our highest rated players rated lower than other services. In other words, who cares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gman87 398 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 If you look at the average player rating it give a clearer picture anyway, IMO. We come in 15 then with only .27 average difference from the 10th place. And the 3 JUCOs are only ranked 2*s each. Really hard to say before you see the whole class.

rockfordpi 91 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Funny, I seem to recall a similar thread. actually even more outrage, about 3 years ago about how could Scout (or maybe it was rivals) justify Giving Jake Holland Only three stars and Mosley 4 stars.

SuperNova 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Scout has us at 26th so I don't know what the complaining is all about. Plus you looking at this the wrong way, recruiting is like a NASCAR race and right now you complaning that AU is in the 26th place with 50 more laps to go. Shake and Bake.

ellitor 33,114 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Especially with the other Services and their rankings. I realize it is all conjecture and opinion but 27th???????? The problem with Auburn on Scout is 50-150% of a player's points come from his position ranking. We will have a few Jucos so they only get Star points and not any position points.
