Fact is that there are something like 10,000 kids that play High School football in a given year. The difference between #1 and #50 is going to be very small. The difference between #50 and #200 is also going to be very small.

I love the truth mentioned here. People are nitpicking about minute differences in rankings. Napier, like all top level coaches has a baseline athletic profile for the players he thinks will be able to perform in the SEC. That’s why his recruiting classes have been so small. He can’t get enough of those players to commit. He’s not going to sign players that don’t meet the baseline just to fill a class. The goal is to be like UGA and AL where you’re signing 25+ of those players class after class instead of 20
