Thee site that ranks your players highest is the best. But as far as the actual functionality of the site 247 is the best right now, Scout used to be the best but they re-did their site and its basically unusable now.

At the end of the day, a kid is the same ball player whether he has 3 or 5 stars next to his name. Recruiting rankings are like preseason rankings, they're a decent indicator of perceived talent but in the end they don't mean a damn thing

You think it's just a coincidence bama started winning titles when they started signing way more 5* and high 4* talent than everyone else?

Rivals should be kicked out the composite. Their rankings are an embarrassment.

Where's your proof that Rivals is in the 247 composite? Everyone assumes it's the big 4 the OP listed, but I'm not sure the numbers add up that way.

I think the services provide lot's of interesting information. Their ratings and rankings are fun, but not worth that much.

I hate certain things about how they work, such as refusing to ever rate certain positions high. Setting a predetermined number of 5 star players is another one, because it's not like there are exactly 32 players with 5 star talent each year.

The best thing about recruiting services is the offer lists.
