Justin Ferguson of SECCountry said JS does not have a number yet & Queen (Who has 15) is healthy for the 1st time in a long time. Queen is pudgy and soft (fat) right now....

They have a company policy, which their new president & Mike Farrell believe in, that players who do not play any joco ball are not to be ranked as juco players. They see him as a FBS transfer & no sites rank FBS transfers. JGT, JLee & BMatt complained to Mike Farrell & The Prez & the response to the 3 was metaphorically go suck an egg. well then. I had no idea that was a thing. My apologies for being so far behind. That will REALLY hurt our chances of keeping our streak on that site going for top 10 classes.

Is that the reason JS is a 4* Composite? I think 247 and Scout are the only two sites who rank Stidham and he is a 5* with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JS would be a 5 star then correct? Don't allow one site to totally screw up a kid's rank. Statistically, they should probably look at all 4 sites and if one site has a drastically different rating, it should probably be dropped when doing their composite ranking.

AUpreacherman22 3,892 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Any word on how Stidham likes the new OC hire? CCL likes for the QBs to toss it around so he should be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oracle79 3,569 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Thanks @ellitor. I don't understand the composite formula rankings, but in my head if you are a 5 star, a 5 star, and a 4 star, your composite would be a 5 star. 5 + 5 + 4 = 14. 14 divided by 3 = 4.66 repeating = round up to 5 star composite. I know that's too simple though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that's too simple though. It is too simple. Composite strictly goes by national average rank order & does not care what stars any site gives a recruit. With JS being a juco all similarly ranked high school recruits have rank priority over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A layman would think 5* + 5* + high 4* would result in 5* when rank orders are figured, but with this new math (probably discovered at UAT) who knows?

Again. The national rank order has nothing to with the stars a site placed. I'm not sure what the cut off point is for jucos but for high school kids if your average national ranking using the sites that ranked a player is 42.5 or better then you are a 5* on the composite regardless of what stars sites put on a recruit. For example. Calvin Ashley is ranked 25, 32, 34, & 48 on the 4 sites. Divide by 4 & his average is 34.75. If it had been 42.75 he would have been a 4* on the composite. Further a player could bee #1 in the nation on 3 sites but if he is 168 on the 4th site he is a composite 4*. 168+1+1+1=171. 171/4=42.75.

The Plainsman 948 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Juco ranking should count higher than HS ranking however IMO. Or do we use the out of HS ranking for JUCO guys too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because juco is only designated by wether you go to juco & get an associates, not by if you play or not. Besides he already played P5 ball.

AuburnNTexas 7,192 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 It doesn't matter if Stidham's ranking technically hurts our recruiting ranking. The reality is his coming to Auburn greatly improves our team which is what matters. I would rather finish a little lower with him then not have him and get a HS player that helps our rankings but doesn't help our team as much. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
