You use Scout ratings & on Scout Couch is a 4*.

Obviously, there are always unknowns in recruiting. We know that 4 star and 5 star success rate is higher than 2 and 3 star success rate. It's why the national champs and SEC champs are almost always the highest rated recruiting classes.
When you talk about a 3 star, you have to dig a little behind the rating. Yes, Bear was a 3 star. But he was also Mr. Basketball in the state of AL. He was 6'5 and only played football for 1 year. He also was someone AU wanted badly. So, he was an excellent prospect despite his 3 star rating. Same could be said for Dak. LSU came in with the late offer. If LSU offers you, you are a good prospect. He had the TCU offer as well.
In this class, I'm struggling to see that 3 star that I get really pumped about. My 2 favorites would probably be Cam Dantzler and Spencer. I like Porter's potential too, but he's heading to Juco.

I didn mention Couch at all. He is an upper 3 star with a lot of offers and would help our ranking for those into that. Jones is a very good player and a 4 star which is all you were listing.

I was told to use the composite so i've made the switch. Also, Steve projects Couch as a TE. Do we really need another TE.

Dakota Prescott was a 3*........

He mentioned where he thought we would finish on Scout & he normally uses Scout so I used Scout on this particular subject.

Then why are we recruiting a 5'11" 160 pound guy? He has an offer.

Who Banks? We haven't offered Banks. That's what the uproar is about.

He is going to be a DB if it's who I think you are talking about.

Nope! WR... 4.2 speed. "We have a good relationship and he says that they want me to come down there and play wide receiver for them."
