group that hosted The Opening where he had his coming out party. Not sure why there is such a discrepancy.

doesn't mean they were directly involved. That's all Nike, with ESPN trying to make a buck on the recruiting junkies,

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.

Herbert's ranking has one of the weirdest variances I've ever seen. Scout and Rivals have him around a 250 guy, while ESPN has him in their top 100 while 247 has him way down in the 750s.

Thin legs are fine if you're playing tackle. You need to be quick. You don't necessarily want to anchor down and stop 6'1", 330 lb. nose tackles.

Last one I can think of that was similar was Derrick Green. ESPN had him at 38 and 247 had him at 83. Both Rivals and Scout had him at 8th overall.
Splits are similar on this one. 247 and ESPN have him top 5, Scout and Rivals have him at 29 and 49.

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...
