Just accidentally found this and thought it was interesting. I know itâs just one service and it only represents one class. But I think it does have some benefit for the Pro Lutz side as fair as his coaching ability (perhaps not recruiting though). Check out #268!!!
More evidence on how much hoopscoop blows. "What? Kenny George can dunk without leaving his feet? Rank him dead last - behind walk-ons.
I also like how Pat Calathes was ranked #350. But his younger brother (who is a half-foot shorter) was ranked in the Top 20 in Hoopscoop for '07.

[QUOTE=niner_2006;296866]They also rank this years recruiting class 13th, weâll see about that in a couple years.[/QUOTE]
Welcome to the board. Hoopscoop actually did NOT rank this years recruiting class 13th - the athletic dept dreamed that up to feel better about themselves.

I thought that was a little odd when I read it in the program.

Whatâs odd is that the school would give âpoopscoopâ any credibility. Itâs the laughingstock of recruiting sites:
Class of 2007 Rankings: #6 DePaul #18 Charlotte #31 Morehead State #37 Kansas State (w/Beasley) #41 Ball State #81 Lamar #110 (tie) Bethune-Cookman & Robert Morris #115 Xavier #116 Louisville #119 St. Bonaventure #140 Clemson #190 (tie) West Virginia & Tennessee #215 Minnesota #257 UConn
hoopscoop measures on quantity, not quality. If your school signs 10 players with a 1 rating and another school signs 1 player with a 9 rating, your school is ranked higher. Terrible system.

This class was ranked #13 by hoopscoop. They rank each guy and then add up the scores. Obviously itâs not the best measure as far as quality goes but it clearly equates to us bringing in a lot of new faces, many of which were Freshman and sophomores. From the thread in the Recruiting forum.
Updated rankings from Hoopscoop as of 4/27/07, now #13. (They had previously omitted Javarris Barnett)

lets be brutally honest: implying we had the [B]13th best recruiting class [/B]is plain silly. ridiculous. It doesnât matter what some dork in his momâs basement ran website said or not.

Agreed, I donât like Hoopscoops method either. But what I find interesting is the individual ranking, not the team ranking. This yearâs Charlotte SR class has the #268 over-all rated player and thatâs it. Even if you use his Scout ranking of #23 PG, it still only leaves him around #115 over-all. Hard to compete on the court with a recruiting class like that.

Clemson is fairly competitive ⌠yet they have not picked up anyone ranked better than #115 on the rivals Top 150 since they signed James Mays back in 2004 (#103).

I see your point but Clemson may be a bad example as they have about 5 guys we recruited and we lost to them on. KC Rivers was #117. Potter #119. Powell may have not been top 115 on there but I believe he was on others.
