He's a 4* on the 247 composite & a 3* on the On3 Consensus. Both are acceptable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore both are acceptable & we will be taking the higher of the 2 rankings moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yngwie1995 2,229 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 (edited) Maybe we shouldn't get so hung up on stars? Just look at his offer list.... Auburn, bama, Texas, Tennessee, USC, Clemson, Florida, and about 30 others. Looks like a pretty good pickup to me.

With a few exceptions, other schools that are after a player mean a lot more than how many stars he may have. Thats what gave me red flags on Harsin almost from the beginning. If none of your competitors are after him, chances are he’s not helping you beat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbo 7,854 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 One for the good guys! Hope one day we hear all the "funny" announcers say "they can't block Blocton." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURex 2,011 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 I'm always hoping that these guys who are kinda 3s and kinda 4s are really solid with our coaching staff and can be coached up as real SEC competitors. I'm positive on this kid in hopes he excels! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuCivilEng1 11,012 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 I tend to worry less about stars when I see that other big time programs have hats on the table. That Bama hat told me everything I needed to know about Blocton. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way to tell if an offer is "commitable" or not. The schools don't/won't/can't say so all we have to go by is what is claimed by the player and common gossip.

Rivals has him a 4. Seems to have a solid offer list for an industry 3*. Maybe he's a bump candidate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since On3's consensus system is a bit hokey and 247 composite does not use On3 in their rankings, both are acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that's just what the players say? 🤷♂️ https://247sports.com/player/malik-blocton-46118642/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
