Rivals' player rankings

[GameLawk]

Last recruiting cycle around signing day, there was a ton of talk about from a lot of posters about how rivals isn't very good and evaluating/ranking talent compared t the other sites, particularly 247. Below I have listed each of the commits, minus the JUCOs (Because of the way they are ranked by each service), with each service's position ranking in parenthesis. If there is a difference in the star ratings, I have that listed as well.

To save you the counting the number of players each service has ranked higher, the score is Rivals-5, 247-3. There also another 6 commits that rivals has not ranked, that are not included in that score.

No ground breaking info here, just thought it'd be an interesting look about halfway through the cycle.

Shi Smith- Rivals (51), 247 (12)
Kyshaun Bryant- Rivals 4* (6), 247 3*(29)
