Yeah it’s confusing to me too. All indications are we will still have a small HS class for ‘22, but we’re throwing out offers like crazy. So either this class will get bigger than we expect or we may cut some current kids loose?
have to think Grant Page might get moved on given his knee injury
 
247 making some changes to their ranking system for people who follow


The 'Recruit Team Rankings’ is the current class rankings you’ve come to know and sometimes love (depending on the year). Nothing has changed with that algorithm, a bell curve where the team’s best commit is worth the most points. 247Sports will continue to reference the Recruit Team Rankings when crowning our Signing Day winner.

The 'Transfer Team Rankings' is a similar bell curve, but, as the name implies, only includes transfers. Oklahoma, Georgia, Florida State, UCLA, USC, Kentucky and Alabama ranked highly in this category when we applied the algorithm to the 2021 transfer crop of players 247Sports graded; and those results bore out nicely over the course of this recent college football season. A school loading up on lowly-rated transfers won’t lift it higher than a more selective school adding the best of the best (just like our recruit rankings).

The 'Overall Team Rankings' is where we dip our toe into the great unknown. This is 247Sports’ answer to the smaller signing classes, to coaches like Beamer who — correctly — point out that the class rankings aren’t accurate unless including transfers. Here’s where the proprietary algorithm comes into play to blend the ratings of high school and JUCO additions with players pulled in from the transfer portal.
