A higher percentage of the 3 stars off the VA top 25 have contributed.


My analysis was of the VA top 25 and I found that the 3 stars contributed at a higher percentage over the four years (2012-2015) that I reviewed. From 2012 to 2015, there were 36 four star recruits and 53 three star recruits. You're holding me to a high standard of precision for a sports board.

After reviewing the 2012 - 2015 VA Top 25 HS recruits on 247 Sports, I've found that 100% of the seven five star recruits contributed to their programs. Those percentages over the same time period dropped to 58% for the thirty-six four star recruits and 74% for the fifty-three three star recruits. Based on these four years, it might be more efficient to focus on the three stars in the VA top 25 who are more reliable and there is less competition for them.

  What do you mean “90-95% is reliable in my book” -- Pride_and_Joy 12/22/2021 10:56PM
  What I meant was ... -- Flanker 12/23/2021 12:05AM
  So 90% is just a completely arbitrary standard you created. -- Pride_and_Joy 12/23/2021 01:34AM
  90% is a good standard -- Flanker 12/23/2021 4:24PM
