I hate to take up for rivals because like any arbitrary system I don't completely agree with the rationale, but they also had approximately 15 guys jump to 4 stars who were in the rivals 100/250. All in all about 28 new names got 4 stars it just feels a bit underwhelming because it is released in three parts( and of course because none of our commits jumped).

What's the problem? They don't have a set number of 4 stars.

Rivals woody basically admitted in his smith bump reasoning that if you attend their camps you get a bump if you can hang

This was the fan's response to officials banning flares in soccer stadiums in Turkey. They are hardcore there! I say we start setting off orange flares in Neyland when we score a TD!

Which I don't understand the problem with this. If someone is able to preform well on camps where the site does evaluations they deserve the bump. It honestly doesn't matter because I think all our committs will play a role on the field in the near future

I can't figure out what the hell is taking so long to give Kameel his 4 stars back to him he had coming out of HS. They make it look like they are making some kind of painstaking scientific calculations...bunch of self important monkeys!

Again, someone explain to me what benefit a 4 or 5* gets from camping? It's not the NFL combine, where they can get drafted earlier and make a ton of a lot more money. 4 and 5* players have their schollies locked up. It's only the 2 and low 3*'s who benefit from this horse and pony show.:loco:

Hahaha nice bump. But seriously, can we stop freaking out about stars and trust the staffs ability to evaluate talent. Who cares that rivals wont give Hurd his fifth star. We all know he is a five star talent. Just because they are butthurt bc he wont attend their camps doesnt mean he is any less talented. C'mon guys.
