Joshua Moore slips out of the Top 100 to #137 and #27 overall... Rivals are you F-ing kidding me, quit smoking crack! The kid has offers from every school in the country that you can think of, and now some how slips behind 26 other receivers, some of which aren't even sniffing half that much. You gonna drop Bookie too?
So it begins
- Thread starter big red23
- Start date
He's never been in the top 100 since the 2018 class was ranked. I agree he should be in the top 100 but he hasn't been in the Rivals100 ever.
He is now rated #67 on 247... Composite is 64 which mean he is rate better on other sites right? I am fairly confident in saying he was a Top 10 receiver on Rivals I believe #8 to be exact... He is now 119th on Scout, 87th on ESPN and 137th on rivals. So how could his composite be 64th if 247 has him rated the highest?
I noticed this as well. Now, if Bookie's ranking goes anywhere but up, THEN we can grab pitch-forks.
WHO GIVES A ****?
If a kid can play, he can play! And I'm pretty sure this kid can play ball.

I get it, but rivals needs to stop with the dropping of rating when a Top rated recruit commits to us. It's like there is a certain rating a kid should get when committed to a certain school. It goes both ways. Usually if we get a 5.5 rated kid he wil get a bump to 5.6 or 5.7 3*... Then if we sign a Top 100 5.9 or greater kid they get dropped... See Tyjon Lindsey last year. When he was committed to Ohio St. he was a Top 5 receiver. Go look where he finished... Rivals thinks that kids that commit to Nebraska should be in a range 5.6 to 5.8. They won't be able to do it this year, because it would be blatantly obvious.
Like it or not, but people follow the ratings, and if you are trending up it gives your team recruiting mojo.
If it's you it's you. I try not to keep track of who thinks what.
I'm just saying when the recruiting rankings are affected the class ranking becomes a huge battle.
Gotcha. Definitely not me then. Sorry to derail.
If this is a big issue with your current state of recruiting then y'all are having a good year.
He has been out of the top 100 and a 5.9 4 star for months, well before he was N. Stop with the whole "rivals down grades recruits that commit to Nebraska". That's not true. Guy Thomas stayed 4 star, Lamar Jackson was the top rated safety in the 2016 class, Terrell Newby was 6.0... these are just a few that are coming to mind. Jurgens is in the Top 100 and honestly, shouldn't be there. He went to the 5 star challenge and did nada vs some of the top players in the nation. I know this notion was HUGE during the Bo years but funny how those players that would drop in the rankings ended up being bust and did nothing... hmm funny how that works.
