That lists 247's rating and the composite of everyone else's ratings. So while ESPN and Rivals may have given him 4 stars, it wasn't enough to bump up his composite from a 3 star.

I don't know why it's so controversial that he has to be a 4 star. We'll get our first eventually. It doesn't make him any worse if he's labeled a 3 star.

247 also dropped his ranking a ton after he committed to us. He went from like an .87 to a .84

Even so, a .87 is still a 3 star.

Again, stars are meaningless on an individual basis. However, on a team talent basis, no team has won a national championship without having a 50% blue chip ratio. https://www.bannersociety.com/pages/blue...ratio-2019

Obviously, we are extremely far away from that at the moment, if we ever have a shot.
