LOL - love the zero star ranking.... He's going to be the first zero star guy to play in the NFL....

HarlemCoug

2/4/17 9:18am

Except for the dozen or so guys that are currently in the NFL? And the 100's before?

BlueFrog

2/4/17 9:22am

there are no zero star guys... unrated guys get 2 stars. A zero star rating would connote that his skills were

HarlemCoug

2/4/17 9:24am

Fine he was NR but no stars were next to that sooo

BigYfan

2/4/17 9:28am

Weird rating system. Is it possible to get 1 star?

Hambone

2/4/17 9:40am

I'm a middle-aged man with no discernable skills and apparently I get two stars.

Me too. Let's start a team.

Kinda like gymnastics, where it's almost impossible to get less than 7 out of 10

Zapata

Interesting. Not according to Dick Harmon. (link)

BYU-Ite

2/4/17 1:18pm

Link to any player with a zero star ranking? 2 is the lowest.

HarlemCoug

2/4/17 1:48pm

No. I was just saying that Dick Harmon said he had zero stars. I'm not arguing

Ziggy

2/4/17 9:22am

I didn't rank him just in case you were wondering

BigYfan

2/4/17 9:27am

sorry to highjack the thread and make it about Mo. This discussion should be about Kalani and the great group of

HarlemCoug

2/4/17 9:29am

I would have included them but both have played

BigYfan

2/4/17 9:37am

Longson was around all of last year. Not sure he should count.

NorthernLight

2/4/17 9:18am

he redshirted so he's new this year...

HarlemCoug

2/4/17 9:20am

Even better yeah?

grosven

2/4/17 9:23am

agreed - great to have guys back after a redshirt year spent in the program.

HarlemCoug

2/4/17 9:25am

In that case you're missing guys, like Zac Dawe and Fuiava as well.

2/4/17 9:56am

Thanks

BigYfan

2/4/17 10:01am

Plug that into the scout and rivals rating formula and see where it ends up

Bob Vance

2/4/17 9:37am

One of them only take the top 20 highest I believe

BigYfan

2/4/17 9:42am

Average of 3.04* (assuming Mo is a 2*) - tied for 32nd in ave * (utes 3.14)

dryflyelk

2/4/17 9:37am

nice, thanks

BigYfan

2/4/17 9:40am

And there are still some available transfers that are a BYU lean... could be good.

HarlemCoug

2/4/17 10:07am

Would they be:

beauso79

2/4/17 11:32am

James Empey and Gabe Reid

scott715

2/4/17 12:24pm

I wouldn't include Reid in that

southernfriedcougar

2/4/17 12:34pm

Forgot about Empey for some reason....

beauso79

2/4/17 1:31pm

Not bad at all.

Harrison0Yfan

2/4/17 5:03pm

You forgot Takitaki

AustinCougar

2/4/17 10:47am

If you're including new guys like Longson and Leiataua, Isaiah Kaufusi could be

pinolero

2/4/17 11:00am

Great work. Can you please add position?

8theU

2/4/17 11:32am

Will do

BigYfan

2/4/17 2:28pm

Only 25 (max) initials available. You have 28. How does that work?

LiquidUte

2/4/17 12:21pm

Several of them were initial counters last year.

pinolero

2/4/17 12:28pm

Looking at Scout, I put it about #37 on par with TCU

scott715

2/4/17 12:22pm

Too many variables. Stars are just one portion of a score.

southernfriedcougar

2/4/17 12:32pm

Also looking forward to Lotulelei at WR who was a RS. 3* offered by UCLA.

rocker

2/4/17 12:45pm

That is a cool list. Thanks for putting it togethet.

Stucoug83

2/4/17 1:02pm

This is cool but I wonder what transfers to other schools is like

SouthernBlueBlood

2/4/17 1:23pm

Other offers are a better gauge than "stars"

cougarnw

2/4/17 1:27pm

Nice! Thanks for putting this together. Only goes to show that it is

mellomike

Can't count RMs
