I know the guy who runs one of the sites over at 247 and he even would tell you they are not at the capacity of Rivals quite yet. Rivals is going down, but it's still above 247 currently. Once again, 247 still doesn't even have a lot of team sites up and running.
And on this website rivals is still quoted way more than any other service.
Oh I get it now after looking. Don't know why that didn't click at first. Rivals is the site that has LSU class ranked highest.
Of course it's mentioned most on the LSU recruiting board. Head on over to the SEC recruiting board once and awhile and you will see that people over there say 24/7 is the best.
Sorry man but you're not going to convince me that Rivals is the best anymore. This is the service that hasn't had an analyst step foot inside the state of Arkansas this year while all 3 of the others have. That tells me they are short handed and are focused on their largest clients. Not the ideal qualities of a great recruiting service.

Cobb? Yeah, he was, Scout hasn't updated for whatever reason. But that's kind of the point, no one is using them.

Yes, you keep making excuses for why Petrino can't repeat the good year he had recruiting in 2009. That is definitely a trend I see being repeated here.

Lulz Rivals is garbage now. But whatever makes your point I guess.
Rivals is still ahead of 247 until proven otherwise. It's impossible to judge the accuracy of their ratings to this point.

I've always quoted rivals, as does the majority of people on here. Go through history if you please. I've seen hog fans go from rivals, to scout, to ESPN to 247 to whatever suits their argument for what makes them look best. I've seen a guy be a 4* on 1 of the 4 major sites for Arkansas and they are a 4* player, period. No argument. Common syndrome I've noticed over the years within the fanbase.

Once again, I don't care if you're convinced or not, I know what's going on. The guy I know said it himself that works at 247 that 247 isn't there YET. He knows better than anyone considering he actually works FOR the recruiting site. When you don't have several team websites up yet, you're simply not there, sorry. As I said though, with rivals declining I definitely see 247 being the top service very soon (meaning a couple years). 247 is still very new and their rankings don't have much history to back anything up yet.

to say it's better, is just making stuff up. Their rankings may be more accurate, no one knows for sure. There is no track record to judge it.

Good deflection attempt, one of your more usual tactics.

If people havent realized that petrino is a good talent evaluator by now then idk what to say
There have been a ton of players that were 2* that we offered first, only to blow up and get offered by big schools and grow into a 4*. We dont get all of them, but we will get more now that we are winning
Jake Bequette
Jerry Franklin
Greg Childs
Jarius Wright
Chris Gragg
Cobi Hamilton
Tramain Thomas
IIRC were all 3* or lower...we arent a self-recruiting machine that LSU and bama are but i like the job petrino is doing

Why is a Tyler Wilson/NFL thread now a recruiting thread?
Who cares about recruiting rankings? It all comes down to coaching good grief.
Nothing worse than idiots that think their class ranking means shite on gameday.

Sure there is a track record at 247. Its everyone who used to work at rivals. 75 pct of rivals people crossed over to 247.
Barry Every at rivals will be the first to tell you they are way under staffed right now and have been for two years.

Franklin wasn't a Petrino recruit.

I can't believe y'all are actually debating with this gaybird. Easily one of the biggest haters on this site. Dude is fricking pathetic.

With Knile Davis coming back, Wilson will definately be back, and we will not be playing for 3rd, we will be playing for it all. The new defensive cordinator already made an impact as was seen in the cotton bowl, and both tough games for us are at home. We will beat bama, and LSU next year guranteed! The LSU fans are just butt hurt rightnow cause their team sucked arse in the title game. Dont worry, bama would have made any team look like a highschool offense last night. They are just better, and the best team in the nation hands down.
