McCord actually moved up quite a bit (20 spots). I think you’re looking at the Rivals rankings.

Yep ... sure was. lol
Still, wouldn't surprise me to see him fall since he committed so early and won't be having as much interest from other big schools.

Irrelevant in the end to me however. If Ohio State or any other top program is recruiting someone, it is for good reason. A Miller/McCord battle will be interesting. Let's just hope we don't lose all our prospects via portal again.
That's a scary place to be.

After all the 2021 summer updates, all four commits now rank as top 100 guys.

Sawyer now #1 overall

Sawyer now #1 overall

What's amazing is that our 2021 class (one 5* and three high 4*) has a higher average (97.86) than does Oklahoma (96.75) and scum (96.44) who each have only one commit (both 5*). You would figure that the three 4* would drag down the average, but apparently having the #1 kid gives you some cushion...

Some dude with entirely too much time on his hand went wild yesterday on twitter and stacked all classes by position to offer composite rankings based on 24/7's year over year data. Stats nerds might quibble with my description but they are perma-virgins so lets continue:

As you might expect - Ohio State has reason to be very optimistic. Also it explains some of the "NEBRASKA IS BACK!" buzz that we read in the national media.

Still a Crimson colored mountain to climb in my conference:

And just for fun, ROFL Georgia Tech:

Prepare yourself to get frustrated here. You guys picked up Justin Fields and didn't gain much ground.

If ESPN is rating an Ohio guy #1, they were either forced to do so at gunpoint, or Sawyer is really good.

 

[EasternBuck]

Do we have a list of the recruits visiting for the PSU game this weekend? I’m hearing several kids from the 2020, 21, and even 22 will be in attendance. Also, mods feel free to move this if it’s better answered in other thread. Thanks.
