Скачать или смотреть Investigating the Accuracy of College Football Recruiting Rankings

Every year, several recruiting sites (247 Sports, Rivals, ESPN) release their recruiting rankings…but, just how accurate are these rankings?

How good are we at predicting potential?
This…was a project. I spent weeks (with the friendly help of others) building spreadsheets full of prior recruiting years (2-5 Stars with Rivals and 247Sports). We used Rivals for the All-Pro examination, as many of the players that are All-Pro’s from the last decade predated 247Sports.
For the draft accuracy, we examined 247Sports, as this was fresher data coming from what most would consider the most accurate (we used their composite rankings).
Let me know your thoughts! Always appreciate feedback…hope you enjoy.
