Questions on basketball recruiting rankings

[BigZiti09]

Those would all be 4*, not 3*, I would definitely agree B is the better class, but again that would be debatable based on need which isn't factored in.

Ok. I edited it. Point is that just saying "3 star" or "4 star" doesn't tell the whole story.

Class C:
4* 101
4*102
3* unranked
3* unranked
3* unranked
3* unranked

This is much different than class B listed above but both meet Bruin's description.

And I highly doubt C is ranked higher than A, you disagree?

No. I've already stated that.

The only numbers that matter are the dates a recruit signs. And the number of wins we get.

This... You guys care too much about recruiting ranks. The ranks are supposed to be a tool to help you decide the future of your program. Who really cares if your class is ranked 27th instead of 21st, the recruits remain the same lol.

There you go making sense , that's not allowed on here lol

It seems to me to be fairly ranked/compared to other teams it should be based off of average stars since so many schools have different scholarships available

If Vandy has 3 available spots and signs
1 5 star
1 4 star
1 3 star

That is an average star of 4


If Georgia has 6 available spots and they sign
2- 4 stars
4-3 stars

That is an average of 3.33 stars


I would hope that Vandy has the higher rated class.


Would they???

Bruin, do you ever read the responses to your posts? Or do you just keep questioning things even after they are answered because that's what Bruin does?

Many many times you might have a point but not this time.

I read all those responses and was more confused than ever.


Anyway I was trying for a simpler way of asking.

Each player has a different value. There's different levels of each star.

Class rankings are not determined by star average. It wouldn't make sense to do that either.

Example of why that doesn't make sense:
Class of 5* and an unrated player (or a 3*) would be worse than a single player class of just a 5*.

Yea I saw you guys post that but I am still confused

BTO said the players pt total decreases with other players in the class but I still don't understand what that exactly means for a class of 6 similarity ranked players compared to a class of 4

My suggestion is to go play with the class calculator if you're still confused

Your questions or understanding don't seem dense. Imo

You just seem to wanna wrap your head around some pretty trivial and complex recruiting issues. also jmo

And wew, I wasn't sure where his post was going either. Just knew a 30 Twss was gonna follow.

Last try here. And no I haven't checked the calculator yet


A team has 4 commits and is currently has a 30th ranking

They take a 5th commit that is a 2 star , very low ranked kid.


Do they go up or down in overall rankings?


Done after this 1 I promise.

Sorry to those that could care less about this

It's the most important part to building a program....I'm not as worried about where the overall class ranks as I am that we fill our roster with a good portion of top 100 kids....101-150 is much harder to build a strong program with although there are some big hits such as JRich and CLO

A couple months ago there was much positivity about Barnes ability to recruit topnotch talent. Are there any players in the top 100 on this recruiting list?

Just looked at the recruiting thread and read the article on De'Riante Jenkins. I can see why there is so much enthusiasm about him, especially if he becomes a Vol!

Hey can you u guys help me with something? I'm trying to use the class calculator on 247 sports for our Basketball class and it wont add any players. I type Braxton Blackwell in the bar and it doesn't pull him up or add him. Do you have to have a 247 membership to have acess the class calculator?
