Point of clarification… seems we should finish the 2024 season in the 2024 thread.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
I don't care where it's at, 2024 or 2025, I wanna see the "not nice like before" version, should be entertaining and ripe excuses.

Yesterday was national signing day. Thought this was interesting...
Recruiting rankings - Eagles and Chiefs rosters
5 star - 9
4 star - 32
3 star - 32
2 star -1
unranked - 32
Patrick Mahomes was a 3 star.

I do not know anything about recruiting rankings for high school athletes (football or other sports).
What are the requirements a high school player must meet to receive a ranking of/designation of:
5 star,
4 star,
3 star,
2 star,
1 star and/or
no star?
Further, what individual and/or organization determines who receives any such ranking or designation?
Ryan Day has cashed in on the expanded 12-team NCAA playoff to the tune of almost $90million and 7 years --- but he still can't beat Michigan!! I hope he can figure it out during the run of that contract.
That was quite a run to the Championship. Very impressive. However it doesn't feel like a true National Championship. When they install the marker showing the year they won they should put an asterisk beside 2024. Better to beat the team up North and lose the Championship game. I wouldn't have cared if they fired Ryan Days sorry ass.

Didn't have a picture of a Merc... but this was exported from Philly so close enough for government work.

Complete nonsense. As it turned out, I wouldn't change a thing. I'm glad they lost to Michigan. Fired the boys up. I'll take National Championships any day over a regular season win. No one remembers Alabama losing to Auburn in 2017.

@Brick said: I wouldn't have cared if they fired Ryan Days sorry ass.
You know, that's the same thing I said in a thread here in the aftermath of the Michigan drubbing. The thing being that my life has taught me that there's strength in admitting when I'm wrong. @Brick, you must have taken a sick-day when that lesson was examined!!
Ryan Day showed HIS strength in the way he rallied the Buckeyes after that to quite literally steamroll the competition into and through the Championship game. No asterisk is needed, in a few short years nobody except us choice few and many in Ann Arbor and Columbus will even remember that outcome of that loss., we'll all remember the recovery.
Here's something to ponder: I believe for that most people their greatest moments are those that tell about redemption. Emerson said it better than I ever could.
Spot on Maywood. What people will remember....Day beating Notre Dame(He's 3-0 against ND)
5-3 playoff record.
What people wont remember.......an 8-5 team.

It varies some depending on the service but generally speaking a 5 star is a top 30 player in his class. A 4 star is the remaining top 300 players and a 3 star is the remaining top 10%. 2 stars are considered role players
Because of the limitations kickers rarely get higher than a 3 star even though they are the best in their class and are really a 5 star. There are 4 stars that really should be 5 stars and there are 3 stars that really should be 4 stars
24/7 and On3 are the two biggest rankers
Wisconsin 2-6 against the SEC since 2007
