19th nationally is always a 5 star.

While in practice it kind of is... They explicitly stated that they haven't awarded him a fifth star due to insufficient footage for him on defense yet. With the expectation that they award it this fall with continued solid performance on the field.

Irritable Bowel Syndrom? Wait. That's IBS. My bad.

That doesn't make a lick of sense. If they have insufficient footage, why rank him 19?

He has dominated in the last 2 camps. You know how this works.

Florida feels good, but reporters suggest we have to hold off Georgia and South Carolina. He’s been to UF several times so far.



The recruiting guys on one of the UGA pay sites say UGA is in the lead right now. I don't think they've talked to him or their counterpart UF guys since the cookout, so that could have changed. But I asked where we stood with him just a few days ago and both said they considered him a UGA lean. Pittman wants him bad.

Nope. I'm a member of the other place. The other place doesn't raise a ranking and then not change the star if it's warranted. Makes no sense to have someone 19 with four and someone else 25 at five. They sholdn't have bumped him that high if they weren't sure.

He wants more than he can have, so there will eventually be a player they have to turn away if they all want in.

Because of his athleticism.

Not all athleticism translates to the field of play. But the kid is a freak.

From what I'm hearing, it won't be this kid. If he goes elsewhere, it's his own choice.

There are at least 4 guys you can say that about. We can’t take all 4 of them.

Sounds like you're confusing 247 and 247 composite.

Carter is only 19th on 247 not composite right now... Thanks to no national ranking for Rivals right now.

Fwiw, 247 doesn't even have Arik Gilbert as a 5* right now (non composite)...
