F^@! Rivals.com

They still have not updated the recruiting rankings for Notre Dame w/ Ethan Johnson. But they pass Notre Dame w/ Texas... That's fair

I know this means absolutely nothing because we're not even close to NSD but I'm just a little ticked off that they would do this... Scout.com knows where its at... for now

 

[The Polish Irishman]

Rivals is probably just waiting unitil after McCarthy commits, ND is wearing them out this year, They are tired

 

[Axl Rose]

If you click on Complete team rankings it'll show that they have updated it.

The update is there, just not on their stupid little blurb. Don't sweat it, we are #2 for now.

Then USC will get 5 more commits and we drop to #3...lol

Sounds like somebody's got a Case of the Mundays

they might not have them...it happens...it's not bias. Rivals does well by ND. Rarely do kids drop when we pick them...they usually jump up.

---------I'm pretty sure they don't move guys up in rankings because they're committed to ND. USC yes, but not ND.

I very much agree with you!!

I think ESPN is more guilty of moving up Notre Dame players. I don't think Rivals or Scouts does. Rivals just pushes Southern players and Scout pushes USC.

This brings me to something I've always wondered...

What are Notre Dame fans opinion on Tom Lemming?

He is more of a fan of players than schools. It seems to me he does not get into all the which school or what ever like rivals and scouts and eSpin do.

 

[onenybrother]

I say Fawk Rivals for other reason. They are reason High School sports is going to pot. ESPN isn't any better.

 

[Irishknight1023]

I used to think Lemming was terrible with his rankings, but I checked out his top 100's the past two years and theres no ND players in there that aren't in the top 100 of other lists. I'm sure he is an ND fan, but I don't think he's nearly as bad as people make him out to be with his rankings. Remember he didn't bump Jimmy down (Along with Rivals) just because he announced in April. Guy was #1 player in that class since his So. year and then they bump him down after going undefeated in HS? Yeah that is why I don't respect ESPN and Scout rankings. Rivals are the only ratings I take seriously anyway (And ND has the #1 class on Scout so you know I'm saying the truth.)

we all feel that way, but I don't see that being true... When the big schools give a kid love, they can sometimes get extra stars.

 

[Epitome]

We are now #1 on both Rivals and Scout in team rankings.

Kinda hard not to have ND #1 right now.

 

[LOVEMYIRISH]

Yeah, we will drop in time. I think we will finish around #4.

 

[AlbuquerqueIrishFan]

Yeah, we will drop in time. I think we will finish around #4.

I agree. As long as we get a top 5, that will be excellent!

 

[mikmo1111]

After the Mccarthy commitment rivals now has ND as the #1 recruiting class just go to the tab at the top that says rankings and go to team rankings

 

[AlbuquerqueIrishFan]

Finally! Rivals has updated their Front Page to reflect ND as the # 1 recruiting class. 3 weeks from the last update.
