Actually it is Rivals that has some 'nolie ownership. Gene Williams, aka
Dot.com, has some type of ownership there. As as a result, many times FSU's
recruits are "enhanced" and UF's are "devalued. The crazy thing about this is
other than the FSU - UF thing, Rivals is perhap the best of the services for
ranking recruits and classes. Scout, IMNO, is the poorest, due to their rating
system which is based on the total number of recruits you sign. So when we
signed a relatively small class, no matter if all 16 had been 5 star recruits,
we had no chance to be ranked in the top 10. ESPN, which in the past has been
a joke, for the last two or three years has made a serious committment to HS
recruiting and now their credibility is among the best. Go Figure.............

I look at it this way... Scout.com's rankings of our recruiting classes
versus F$U's has explained the scoring differential in the past 4 years games
(UF has outscored F$U 145 to 48) since 2005. Hmmmmm.... You think they may be
inflating F$U's class rankings and deflating ours???? :-)

They never like us. I noticed Nick Alajajian was a 5 star player by them
until he committed to the Gators, then he suddenly became a 4 star.
Sump'n fishy there!
