Final Team Ranking?

[Gravitron]

Full disclosure, final team ranking is not an obsession of mine. However, for sake of argument, in the 2017 final team rankings we finished 20th. Our class size was 20 (included Blades and KJJr) and we finished with an average star rating of 3.3.

Sean and Nate believe our final class size will be 22 or above. Our average rating after the Martinez commit is 3.36. Yet, Nate and Sean have said we are likely to finish in the 30s or 40s for final team rankings.

With another 10 visitors this weekend and 4 of them being uncommitted 4 stars, why do Sean and Nate think we will finish much lower than last year?

Because after the sh-t show we watched this year, most fans don't like getting their hopes up.

Don't forget about Watts not showing up either.

That was my impression too.

Forgot that. Good point.

This is exactly what I was thinking.

I doubt 22. And when you look at the target list and the number of reasonable gets among that list, after 16-18 things get a little reachy. Maybe some new offers go out. We probably end up 6 or so in the league and at maybe top 25. Not bad if it ends up that way.

I could care less what this year's class ends up being ranked. It'll be good enough. Just keep adding SPEED!!!
