The Fran fade

You're welcome, thank you, signed up yesterday after reading this thread and seeing the misinformation about Bowen's ranking. Hoping to add to the discussion and saw the Bowen post and Bossi's tweet from the other day came to mind.

He is a 4 star by 247 and ESPN and a 3 star by Rivals.
247 uses the composite ranking as they believe it’s the most accurate than any other service. They have composite rankings so someone doesn’t roll out an article saying the team got a 4 star recruit using only ESPN’s recruiting rankings.

As far as how it works.. It’s quite complex and someone smarter than me would have to explain their algorithm. Again, I’m not saying this Bowen kid is bad, but I did say with confidence some Iowa fans would get in their feelings about it. I mean you made a whole account to dispute it lol.

You mean their algorithm that updates as soon as any ranking from any of the 3 sites is made but somehow forgot to update Bowens

That isn't what I said. I said I would have a hard time believing it was up to date if they weighed each of the services equally. I was wrong on how they calculated the composite.

Doesn’t 247 literally have a little button on the site that you can click on and it literally tells you the algorithm and how it works?
