I could see 247 taking over the top spot(at least in my mind) within a year or 2. They have turned it into a pretty strong service pretty quickly.
Granted it does not really matter what service ranks a recruit compared to others. 1 thing I have learned in following UT recruiting is fans will always use the service who ranks the recruit higher for THAT recruit. If Rivals says a RB is a 4* and Scout says 5*, the kid is a 5* if he is a UT possibility. If 247 says a TE is a 4* and ESPN says 5*, then he is a clear cut 5* even though ESPN hates us.![]()
Of course if the kid picks a school other than UT, it automatically reverts back to the lower ranking for the recruit.
Plays out that way all the time on here.
I think we're all biased that way.
