Woohoo! 3 in the 70's according to ESPN! Im pretty sure that a player in the 70's is pretty much the equivalent of a 3 *. So not bad.
Make sure you read the write-ups !

it looks like most people are either in the mid 70s or 40...does that mean 40 = we don't know anything about you?

look at our 08 class and Mustaches 07 class. A lot more 40's and a lo less 70's than the 09 class. Hopefully the 2010 class will be even better. Looking that way according to the ESPN ranking anyway...

I have a feeling a 40 means exactly that "we don't know anything about you". As desirable as Bordano is to this coaching staff, we can expect his stock to rise fairly quickly this fall.

not all 70s mean anything close to a 3 star-I'd be pretty shocked if any of our recruits other than O'Guinn are 3 stars. I'm a little puzzled why Bordano doesn't have more offers-good size, fast enough to run sprint relays and very productive-I wouldn't be shocked if he ended up 3 stars but doubt he will be at first.

Thats just rivals. How many of those were scout 3 *'s...

Only 2 out of 12 2009 recruits rated in the 70s were 3 stars under Scout

which is the hardest to get a good rating? ESPN, Scout, or Rivals?

Which one usually gives out more stars? Rivals or Scout?

i am not concerned with the ratings of players as much with JJ system. ex: the truth... probably wouldnt fair well in a "normal" offense, but has the potential to be all world in JJ's.

The Jeremy Johnson that we just got to commit is shown as a 40 from what I can see. Maybe I missed something?
