Doesn't make much sense, does it?

I certainly hope he's "cool" towards FSU!

The skyrocketing in his rating when he went around to those P5 camps was to be expected... but I certainly didn't expect him to just drop off like that afterward!

Shows why noone should take 247 ratings serious.   

247 has about a monopoly on recruiting rankings, but it does not mean they do it well.

He is actually rated an .8600 by 247, but his composite rating is .8403

In fairness, it is the 24/7 composite rankings, which includes other recruiting services, where Kade's ranking dropped so dramatically.  If you click on the "Top247," they still have him ranked up at #752, a drop of only 3 places from his peak.

Good point, I apologize to 247.

Still wonder how ranking change so much without any games being played.   

Apparently Renfro's rankings went down because he didn't commit to another team.   Totally illogical.

Why?  You think Kade has a thing for white women?

[H-towngreen]

Rivals did an update hence the changes I believe

Who gives a flying flip.  The kid can BALL.  Let him be ranked low, let the big schools stay away.  Look what this staff did with a no offer undersized QB....

Oh, I absolutely agree!  Just commentary on the ratings systems.

”Oh!  He’s picking up a lot of P5 interest during these camps, better bump him up in our ratings!  He never got an offer, and he’s still committed to UNT?  Better bump him back down.”   Never mind that he’s still the same player.

Dane Jackson  also got bumped down to 81. However  Isaiah Johnson and weaver are up to 81

It's all part of the self-perpetuating cycle. 

 

"UCF beat a P5 school in the bowl game, but they could never compete for a full season in a P5 conference."  

How do you know? 

"Because P5 conferences are better top to bottom" 

How do you know? 

"Because they play P5 schools every week.  And they recruit at a higher level" 

How do you know? 

"Look at the rankings of the players they are bringing in" 

So, how do you know those rankings are legitimate?  How do you know these kids are more talented? 

"These kids have offers from all the P5 schools" 

 

Rinse...repeat...

Not sure how we would know if he got offers or not.  However, your theory is absolutely correct.

I bet he would report the offer, because that would just send his rating up even further.
