I thought u were exaggerating about him being ranked outside their top 50. But nope.. sure as **** is. Their #1 ranked tackle and 7th overall player, is a guy the other recruiting sites have ranked between 64-122, and outside their top 5 at the position. They're the only site to list Okunlola outside the top 3 at T.

On3 is going out of their way to be the recruiting contrarian. Their rankings are like that all throughout their top 100. The guys the other 3 believe are elite are ranked outside their top 50, meanwhile their top 50 is full of players the other site have outside their top 100.

They’re the new kid on the block, need to stand out somehow to get subs and not seem like 247 with just a new name (breaking news- it is). I know all the guys are buddies and helped each other during founding of these sites but if I was 247, I wouldn’t use their rankings in my composite yet to give them legitimacy.

What I don’t understand is why 247 includes them if their rankings are contrarian for the sake of being so. It’s weird that their business model is legitimizing their competitors.

One of our insiders, my apologies to @DMoney, @Cribby for not remembering who it is, has said that Okunlola is the #1 rated prospect on the UM recruiting board. A board which is comprised of the best experts on the subject; actual coaches whose livelihoods depend on getting these things right and who are considered the best in the business; HC, OC/WR, RB, TE and OL coaches are all the best, not to mention the DB coach, and big-time DL and LB coaches. Not to mention a fill time personnel evaluator who was good enough to do this for a living in the NFL.
If our staff or recruiters say that Okunlola is the best player then he is the best player.

I don’t know about how rest of you, but when I want to know the best restaurant, I want a chef to tell me. Not some food critic who can’t hack it as a chef. Ask me who is the greatest rock guitarist of all time and I go with Hendrix because so do all the rock guitarists.
Who gives a **** what some writer thinks.

When the best in the business say Okunlola is the best you leave it at that and stop debating about what a 22 year old who was too slow, fat and short to ever play football after Pop Warner thinks. Gary Ferman works for On3. You think that sloppy MF ever played a down of serious football? Give the star rating a rest.

And one more perspective. 4 stars likely cost less in NIL money than 5 stars. High rated 4 stars are the best return on money.
