never updated BSJ's rating - stayed at a 75 the entire time

although, other than BSJ and Kurt Taylor they have every other recruit as a 4-star for Michigan

ESPN sucks at nearly everything.

They are a relic of monolithic media, and will either adapt (which history shows nearly all don't) or will slowly regress to whatever monolithic media is good at (hoarding intellectual property and/or signing multi-million dollar contracts).

Case in point, MGoBlog, more hours spent here per day than spent on an entire week on ESPN.com (or even month maybe).

That is the new future.

I saw Kai Leon Herbert outside Schembechler during his official visit in October. He's got a fair amount of baby fat on him and thin legs. Would likely need a redshirt just to put some real muscle on and get in great playing shape. Definitely not a Filiaga type player at this point. We may be dodging a bullet if he flips to Fla.

He's 2 in ESPN but in the 40's for Scout and 24/7.  This is the first year I can remember really comparing recruiting sites - I just assumed they would all be decently consistent across the board (maybe having kids in roughly 10-15 spots). But to me that's a really big deviation. But from the examples you guys were giving, it's not too uncommon...
