4-star LB Nick Henrich is N (Consensus 4-star) Update NE Gatorade POY





:eek: for black

:Biggrin: for red

;)

Must have been impressed with his first week of practice at Burke.

Another reason it’s who you commit to and their depth chart with what ranking you get. Good news is people who think stars matter for championships can now be happy with this commit instead of sad.

So you think Rivals had some guy hang out at Burke practice? Would seem tough to gauge a really great talent surrounded by average high school talent. Unless he were evaluated at a camp, would seem like a crystal ball bump in the rankings. Not really trying to rain on his parade, but could be taken that way. Maybe he saw excellent read technique and tackling technique. Who knows.

Was tongue in cheek. :)
 
Ok. So why the big bump?
Did the paparazzi catch him sipping coffee with one of the Kardashians in a secluded coffee house yesterday? Needs a respectable ranking to justify hanging with the Kardashians.

That is a mystery. Maybe a different dude on staff watched the film.
 





On Sharp and Benning in the morning, John Talman from Rivals was co-hosting with Damon Benning and gave an explanation about this bump. According to Talman, Mike Farrell (recruiting national recruiting director for Rivals) was talking with Talman at the 5-star challenge in Atlanta, GA about some of the talent in the Midwest and Farrell brought up Nick without being asked saying that he loved his film. Rivals had ranking meetings recently and a lot of analysts liked Nick after reevaluating film, so he got the ranking increase.

Talman said that the ranking analyst ultimately wants to be right, that's regarding college career and NFL draft, so coaches, school success, film, competition, and other factors that impact their evaluation and ratings given to players. Coaches and their history of talent evaluation and development definitely make an impact on ratings. Frost with QB's, for instance, is an example John Talman used, with Oregon and UCF QB's results on the field (Marriota, Vernon Adams, Darron Thomas, and McKenzie Milton more recently).
