Some interesting things to me... first, somehow Eli Woodard is listed as the #6 overall recruit in the nation. That is crazy to me. Mackenzie Alexander is #5 overall.

Max Browne is listed all the way down at #18. Honestly, this seems more appropriate to me than some places that have in the top 5. His tape simply does not wow me like other consensus #1 QBs and I think he's getting rated so high based on his measurables.

Jaylon = #9 = our highest rated recruit... and last of the 9 5:s: players... ESPN seems far more harsh on their stars.

Torii Hunter is ranked surprisingly high as the #47 overall recruit in the country and #5 WR. How bout that...

Anzalone = #64; Colin McGovern = #86; Hunter Bivin = #99... we have a total of five top 100 players by their measure. That's not shabby.

Isaac Rochelle = #142; Doug Randolph = #144 round out recruits in the 150...

Malik Zaire checks in as the #5 dual threat QB and #178... by their measure, Devin Butler is our best CB at #18 in the country and #187 overall... Jamel James checks in at #232... and Mike Heurman is the last ND player in the top 300 at #267.

Left out surprises? Montelus... I thought he was highly rated before. Elmer... same deal, not in top 300? Really? Cole Luke... low 4:s:.

All the others I can pretty much understand.

ESPN is bad. Luginbill openly admits they don't have a systemic approach to rating recruits. It's totally subjective.

Elmer and Montelus being so low makes no sense. But the others are all defensible.
