If you really want to look at rankings you need to look at the composite not just 1 site. Rankings are based on stars and numbers. Example a 25 man class of all 3* would be ranked higher than a 15 man class of all 4-5*. I would take the 15 man class every day of the week. Quantity means nothing if they are less talented. Coaches don't look at star rankings. They look at who fits their system best. When you are Alabama or Auburn you buy, I mean recruit, the best talent that fits your system. The guys Bama gets are always highly rated and often get bumped after they commit to Bama.
