I wish I could set it to rank at time of commitment because Howard, and Joey were significantly higher before losing/giving up their senior years.

Ellenson. He was a McDonald's All American and 9th in RSCI.

Paint touches or Cracked Sidewalks once did a study of accuracy of rankings indicating future success. If I recall top 30 is an extremely accurate indicator, top 50 (75?) was the next major drop then it was pretty much the same till after 150

Post by: GooooMarquette on November 22, 2019, 07:38:22 AM: Yeah, they are a general guide, but far from definitive. A few who caught my attention for performing well better than numbers would indicate:

Current: Sacar at 191, Theo at 204 and Greg at 224. I'd take any in a heartbeat over many of our past top 100 guys.

Recent past: Davante at 203 and JFB at 226. And although he was mainly a role player, I'd take a kid like David Cubillan (788!!) any day.
