Feldman getting pressured into writing an entire piece on CJ Carr, which amounts to just a bunch of friendly, generic-to-the-QB quotes, based on the fact that he wrote an entire Elite 11 article before that without mentioning CJ once, is funny to me lol.

I wonder if he was actually trying to throw ND fans a bone based on how many tweets and article comments he got on the Elite 11 piece about a lack of CJ Carr commentary (after writing something about literally every other QB there), if he simply saw an opportunity for a massive bump to his monthly clicks, or if he got pressured by management to do it for the sake of business… probably a bit of all three.

He was getting absolutely pummeled by ND fans on Twitter for a bit after that first article. It had to have been a conscious effort to not discuss Carr, a top-5 performer at the event, when he discussed all the other QB’s the first time around. I just don’t know what his grudge would have been.
It was pretty funny how he completely ignored Carr in his first “all the QBs at Elite 11” piece though. Every other comment was like “Why No CJ?”

Feldman is a total pro. No idea why he’d intentionally diss Notre Dame like that. But I do think he gets caught up sometimes in being the smartest/best-connected-to-brainy-assistant-coaches guy in the room and misses the forest for the trees. That’s probably all it was.

If you need another reason to think Singer is a worthless piece of shit…

For no reason he chimes in that of course the coaches at Elite 11 said nice things about Carr, they aren’t going to bad mouth anybody, as if they really didn’t believe it.

They could compliment him without saying he was as good as Rioala or Sayin, or he was ND’s best in 20 years. Those are pretty specific compliments.

Singer will trash Carr to ND fans & his own subscribers to defend Charles Power.

He can’t admit 193rd is trash.
And he goes at anybody who questions it.

Singer is such a bitch.
Clueless, lazy, whiny, thin skinned, bitch.

That’s 10 years.
That would also include Clausen & Quinn.
damn my math is shit - well even if he is 3rd in that list we are going to be putting points on the board. On the other hand its pretty steep drop off after those 2. Quinn>>Clausen>>>>Book>>>>>>>>the rest

I'd throw Kizer in that mix but your point is well taken.

Kizer was pretty damn good in 2015, slight regression in 2016 but playing on a really bad squad. His game against UT was unbelievable, though, despite splitting reps in the first half with Zaire.

He could've been awesome in 2017 if he stuck around. Woulda/coulda/shoulda.

Golson had so much raw talent but he lost his edge there in 2014. Never really recovered after the game at ASU.

I often wonder about how Golson would've developed if he hadn't been suspended for 2013.

Kizer was dynamite in 2015. Even with a bad team he seemed confused and/or hesitant quite a bit in 2016. Definitely a step back. I still think of what Golson could have been if he had learned how to run with the ball instead of caring it like a hot potato.

They moved the FSU kid above Carr for having one good day at elite 11 lol

It's really a joke. They've all been wrong on Carr so they have to stick to their guns. I don't even care anymore. I can't wait for On3 to bump Carr up to 185 instead of 193. The Davis thing is just great since UM fans love to say he's better than Carr. Objectively it's not even close.

Not to derail the entire thread about ratings, but it’s also crazy that nitro tuggle was a low three star player before he commits to UGA and transfers to IMG and is now a top 100 player. Same goes for Jordan Thomas DL out of John bosco in NJ. He was a middle 4 star and now top 100.

Carr actually dropped a spot in the composite.

So he moved up 1 spot on 247.
Dropped 1 spot in the composite.

So ESPN did their updates too.

Carr is the 4th ranked QB on ESPN, 247 & Rivals. 36, 35, 21st nationally on those three sites.

On3 has him 13th ranked QB. 193rd.

And in case you are wondering, all of Charles Power’s updates on Carr have been negative, so don’t expect a big move up.

Rivals 4th (21)
ESPN 4th (35)
247 4th (36)
On3 13th (193)

Remove Charles Power, & Carr is a top 25 nationally, 5 Star on the composite.

That dude is such a tool.

It will be interesting to see Powers’ next update on Carr.

He dropped him…

I shit you not.

I’m on vacation in Destin, & I am taking time at the beach to literally post how fucking stupid Charles Power is.

He dropped Carr to the 14th ranked QB now.
So kids who weren’t even invited to elite 11 or finished well behind Carr at it are ahead of CJ.

His rankings are the worst I’ve ever seen.

Well, looks like it’s set in stone then. On3 making a conscious effort to keep Carr as a 4 star. I’m not subbed on their site, was any explanation given as to why he was dropped?

Vendetta of some sort
just makes him look more foolish
his loss
glad I cancelled my $1
My favorite is how Mike Singer threatens people for calling Power out.
His go to retort, “Charles Power created & ran his own recruiting service before joining On3.”
My response, “yeah, and it sucked too. That’s why it went out of business.”
Instant 2 week ban. LOL

Why don't the other services call him out by name? Or call On3 out by name?
