I liked 247 before I even knew who Chris Jones was. It's the only pay site, that I have actually payed for.
Eta: 247 was high on him long before any of the other networks even had him ranked, so that should tell you something.

You're such a hipster

But that's cool... maybe I'll give 247 a closer look

bullshite. We loved 24/7 last year when they had us around #25 - while Scout had us @ #17 or so... They are just way, WAY more thorough on evaluating players, leaving them with much better overall rankings.
The fact that they added the composite rankings is just a bonus. Wish ESPN didn't get equal share in the composite score though.

247 is the best in rankings, coverage, etc. It really isn't even close, either.

The question should actually be if Rivals and Scout deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as 247 anymore.

Rivals is close to being a joke like Scout. All the talent left that site awhile back for 247.
247 is the best site in the industry right now and Rivals will keep being around because for the longest time they were the only reputable site out there but now they are becoming a joke.
Scout atleast does a little research but Tom Luginbills ESPN recruiting site is the worst bunch of garbage out there. They dont update their lists but maybe once a cycle and besides having a national company behind them showing games and events offer nothing to recruitment fans.

Yeah I've been following the guy who runs it on twitter... seems like a total homer. Every tweet has #hottytoddy and shite like that

Does every team's site have shite like this? I'm not retarded enough to stomach more homer reporting that I'm already subjected to read...

He used to work with Neal and Chase I believe. He actually owned the name on Rivals which is why they changed to rebelgrove.
Chase and Ben aren't too bad of homers. Neal is unbearable and Yancy is yancy.

Yeah Neal and Chase are least present themselves as non-homers, which is half the battle.
Chuck and Yancy are always using: "us" "we" "our"... drives me crazy. I used to just accept it, but now there's actual non-homer competition out there.

1. 247
2. Rivals
3. ESPN
4. Scout
Tennessee's rivals site is better than the 247 site though.

For Auburn I prefer Scout mainly because their mods aren't clueless douchecanoes.
