Case in point, a 2 star WR from Florida has multiple offers from power conference teams. He committed to Auburn this past weekend and jumps to a 3 star 5.7 ranking and into a top 100 WR ranking. I believe had he committed to Purdue after we offered him the same ranking for him would be much less. If the SEC offers players they must be really good but if less heralded programs offer he must not be that good. No ranking system will ever be perfect and it's more often correct than not but when we offer a 2 star he maybe better than where Rivals ranks him
