I follow recruiting only casually in wondering why so many sites differ so much on so many players by wide margins?

I've heard most sites give players who go their camps give higher rankings automatically is that true?

Teams steal schemes all the time :mjlol:

Hell coaches get advice from other coaches all the time during the off season, Gary Patterson and Todd Herman both spoke to Saban in the offseason

Thats what makes it more funny. Hell Urban took all kinds of shyt from Chip Kelly the year he work for espn. That next year took the OSU job and implemented the stuff he took. He gives Chip all kinds of credit. It wasn't no mystery our secondary was getting torched playing zone in 2013. 2014 we switched to man press, and played 1000x's better.

that is true
in addition, players * ratings to up based on who is recruiting them, and based on camps they're invited to.

As in

QB 1 from bumbleeff texas is a 3 star when his only offers are texas tech and SMU. If he gets invited to a camp in state, and subsequently gets an offer from texas, he will quickly become a 4 star....just because he is recruited by a major school.

look at shane morris' timeline. Start from the bottom. and scroll up.
