    I see, so by lower, you actually mean higher, since the rankings go up to #1? Well it certainly looks like rivals is doing us no favors, and yet we have the #1 spot. Kinda funny.

    Yeah. Not to mention the main reason Davenport is ranked so low on Scout is because he's been injured. He was #2 for a while on Scout.

    The rest of the recruits for those who care: (Rivals/Scout)

    LSU

    Allen (5,12) Rivals higher
    Barrow different ranking system
    Garrett 18,27 Rivals higher
    Claiborne (58,89) Rivals higher
    Logan (33,65) Rivals higher
    Williford (77,77) tie

    Alabama
    Atchison different ranking system
    Bonds (46,27)
    Orr different positions
    Smith (32,19)
    Steen (26,25)
    Warmack (20,45) Rivals higher
    Williams different positions
    McKeller different positions
    Marrow (15,11)

    Higher on Rivals:
    LSU: 9/14
    Alabama:11/16

    My rough draft. Just went by the non 4*s on Rivals and added them to the previous numbers.

    * I removed Stinson because of different positions. Im not sure if I missed any others.


    Isl, youre welcome for my hard work. ;)

    With Sentimore sticking with Bama, does this mean we won't top the recruit rankings? I know we should land Mingo and Randle but who else?

    I actually adjusted the rankings based on Bell potentially switching from LSU to Bama (and assumed Sentimore to LSU at the time of this adjustment).

    So I will leave the adjusted rankings as such since both Sentimore and Bell seem to be way up in the air, and I will project one to go to LSU and the other to go to Bama.

    Hopefully that made sense.

    If Bama gets both Bell and Sentimore and Sentimore qualifies and counts, then it's an all out race to the finish between LSU, Bama and USC.

    Meanwhile, Ohio State just jumped LSU for the top spot on Rivals after they received a commitment from a 4 star OT today.

    That's their max ceiling.

    No worries about them finishing first or even close to it.

    They will probably end up 5th behind LSU, USC, Bama and UF.

    I think we can go ahead and say Sentimore is all Bama now right?

    I think Sentimore is as much Bama as Bell is LSU.
