If you think about it, those companies need a way to attract their clients.  They need to keep people interested, therefore when people commit they have a tendency to go down in the rankings because they need to keep it interesting.  If say 25 of the top 30 are all committed and the unanimous top 5 are all going somewhere there is no reason to really pay attention.  But when you get down to end, and you have 4 guys who are not committed, it gets much more interesting if they are highly ranked.  Currently on Scout, only 4 top 20 players are committed for next years class, only 1 in the top 10.  Ben simmons is the only top 10 player who is committed.  Rivals has 3 guys in the top 20 committed.  I mean what has Richardson done to drop from a consensus top 20 recruit into the lower 20's?  He has only improved and scored at will in the AAU season, but he commits and all of a sudden starts to drop down the list while non committed players rise.  Look at Mccullough, he was at one point a top 5 player in his class.  He commits and all of a sudden he drops to the 20's.  They have to keep their subscribers someway or another and people are going to pay more attention if top players are still available and being recruited by their team.  I couldn't tell you how many of those 4 guys on scout recently committed, but i think at least one if not 2 of them committed after the updated rankings came out.
