That makes zero 17ing sense if I’m understanding it correctly. I also can’t 17ing stand Bartoo.

Really? Let's bet every college football game next year. I'll take the team with higher recruiting rankings, straight up.

You'd have lost today with UT vs VU & maybe UF vs FSU.

But, I think his point is that the Coach Effect Metric is dumb.

You're right: I would have lost with Tennessee and Florida State today. Do you want to bet the entire season next year? I'll take the team with higher recruiting rankings, straight up.

So only 2 schools beat teams with higher recruiting rankings?

And only 3 games were won by schools with lower recruiting rankings?

Correct. But the comparison would not have to do with games. It would compare the average last 4 year recruiting rankings to the standard deviations from the final computer rankings. At the top there would be some differences. Once you got over #20 it would be as random as lottery numbers

Yea, Bartoo may be an obnoxious loser, but anyone who is still running around yelling 'stars don't matter' just has their head in the sand. On the whole, they matter.....if you don't believe it then just run some numbers on the NFL draft and the results of the actual games for the past 10 years.

It’s not that they don’t matter. It’s just a faulty system. If they started assigning stars while blinded to players’ offers and where they signed, we’d see that the people assigning stars are actually pretty terrible at evaluating talent.
