[tep624]

Thanks for doing this again.

Well, it's not much work yet lol

 

[PhatOrange]

id recommend tracking rvls rating at time of commitment so we can see how their ratings change for our kids through out the season.

[HeaterCuse22]

Thanks tep

 

[tep624]

Thanks tep

I added the primary recruiters too - good suggestion. I guess this will become more of a quick reference list than just offers now lol, our version of Frankenstein!

 

[PhatOrange]

Done!

watch the numeric ratings to. where they screw with the ratings is by changing the 5.4, 5.5, 5.6's etc.

 

[CuseLegacy]

Can this thread be tacked please.

Why do you consider Utah a "Major" offer for Robinson? I can kind of see Kentucky but only for the reason that it is in the SEC.

 

[NailstheCusefan12]

Why do you consider Utah a "Major" offer for Robinson? I can kind of see Kentucky but only for the reason that it is in the SEC.

They are in the Pac-12 now, and have been a pretty good program over the last decade.

 

[syr02esq]

They are in the Pac-12 now, and have been a pretty good program over the last decade.

You are right they are Pac-12 but I don't recall any noise from that program since Urban Meyer left.

 

[money3189]

Yeah I would consider Utah more top notch than Kentucky. Not sure if Kentucky won any bowl games in recent years

 

[NailstheCusefan12]

You are right they are Pac-12 but I don't recall any noise from that program since Urban Meyer left.

Fair point. I usually only watch Utah once a year, as Utah and Utah State is always a great rivalry game.

 

[PhatOrange]

Major = BCS (power 5 conference) offer
Mid Major = NON bcs offer

 

[rrlbees]

watch the numeric ratings to. where they screw with the ratings is by changing the 5.4, 5.5, 5.6's etc.

They can and should change as the process goes along.

 

[tep624]

Major = BCS (power 5 conference) offer
Mid Major = NON bcs offer

Correct Sir. This way I'm allowed to list UCONN as a mid-major which is always fun.

 

[syr02esq]

Major = BCS (power 5 conference) offer
Mid Major = NON bcs offer

Ok, well this makes sense.

 

[Antiprodigy]

Suggest an initial rating, and a current rating.

 

[WickedOrange]

Thank you for compiling.

Suggestion: add city and state to first post.

 

[CuseLegacy]

Thank you for compiling.

Suggestion: add city and state to first post.

Maybe instead of asking Tep for all this additional work y'all can just go to the additional content link drop down box... top left of thread orange bar... and choose football commits.
That should give you all the additional info you are looking for like state, school, link to thread on the site, etc.

 

[Libero2]

Looking at this, the only thing I would change would be to add an "updated on _______" date that's bolted so it's easier to keep track of everything. Yes I see the post last updated on thing, but having a bolded date in the post would be better I think.

That way people can see if our commits ratings have been updated on the sites since last updated. But it's only a thought.

 

[chakka3421]

Thank you for compiling.

Suggestion: add city and state to first post.

If you mean where the kid is from? I would 2nd at least the state where the kid comes from as it's nice to see what states/regions recruits come from.

CuseLegacy - if we are going to keep a tacked list at least the state would be nice. I agree on the rest if you want more detail then go to the link. I do see value linking the kid to the region/state and the recruiter responsible for the region. It can tell us who on the coaching staff is getting it done and where!
