Than why are people on here getting so exorcised and putting so much stock over the IL rankings? I am pretty sure Virginia got everyone on their A list, even if they missed a few they might have liked. That also might be true for Loyola and Delaware, whose staffs are thinking the same thing and I have no idea who either team got……………InsiderRoll wrote: ↑Wed Sep 28, 2022 8:08 amWe’re saying the same thing.

When it comes to rankings… for the most part Ty just talks to college coaches and club coaches and sees who they are going to recruit. That’s why they don’t come out until right at Sept. 1. So when he here’s that UVA and Duke are going to call them they get bumped up the list. It’s not a comprehensive ranking.
Lastly, great evaluators have the ability to project how a players game can grow and translate to college. Being a great HS player with talent doesn’t mean you’ll have a successful college career. Then there’s the hardest piece of all, it’s projecting which kids can buy into your program fully as and 18-23 year old and commit to being an elite player. With all of the distractions in college that come up, there isn’t a coach in the world that can project that with 100% certainty. Basically, the kids personality will play a major role in how they develop.
Oh, and it doesnt matter if UVA has 50 5 stars, only 10 can be on the field at a time, so if Rutgers can put together 10 guys that can play at that level, then they can compete.
Is he going to know every kid that top schools are reaching out to… no. I’m well aware that coaches don’t care at all about rankings.

has xanders gone on record to say that's what he's doing? calling club coaches, and lining up recruits with hoo is going to recruit them?InsiderRoll wrote: ↑Wed Sep 28, 2022 8:08 amWe’re saying the same thing.

Re: Recruiting, the exact science
Could also be said that Army really sucks without 100% full rides. Or a prep school. Or having (even) older kids than the competition. Or a $50M+ atheletic budget that comes from federal grants and government loans and is able to maintain an unknown board and unknown coaches compensation structure.lorin wrote: ↑Wed Sep 28, 2022 9:52 am15 and five since 2001, and last year you had 9G from transfers, like I stated you suck without the portal.kramerica.inc wrote: ↑Tue Sep 27, 2022 1:34 pmA hater on any team that has had Army's number.1766 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 27, 2022 1:24 pm"2022 Rutgers will be lucky to be .500". -Lorin's last prediction.

Re: Recruiting, the exact science
Lorin, I find it odd that you criticize Rutgers for not performing well in the NCAAs when your team is...Army.
If you are using the same standard for your favorite team - How many NCAA tournament games has Army won in the past 22 years?
Anyone know?

Most of Army's grad year team was like 7 years old when then. I am not sure I'd call that recent.

Ty Xanders : Um, he's Inside Lacrosse's #57 incoming freshman . My best friend's coaches organizations directors brother's teammate heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going to Duke who saw Chad Powers get two assist at 31 Flavors last night. I guess he's pretty good.
