Let me break down some of what you're seeing here, but in picture form.I love your analysis here. I think you and I largely agree. But I think our biggest differences are McGahee and Kaelin. These are obviously magnified by how high you have them and how low I have them. Consensus seems to agree with you more as both are 4 stars. Kaelin could be amazing and he could be a great decision maker. But as far as measurable are concerned he seems really low (40 times, running ability, strength, agility). He seems very accurate though. With him it is going to be how well he makes decisions.
McGehee's film stood out to me because of his lack of physicality. But in his defense, his football IQ seemed to be off the charts. He broke down very well and always seemed to be in the right place at the right time. But what I cringed about was how he usually was getting carried for a few yards. This could be a lack of familiarity with the D (which would seem odd based on what seemed to be a supreme knowledge of the defense), or even a lack of trust in his supporting cast. When I compare him to our past recent 4* players he just does not seem as physical (Dillard, David, Compton, Nelson, Henrich). That said he also seemed to understand defense a lot better than the other five.
I prefer a more organic collaboration. Though there are a few here I could work with.
Specifically I would team up with:
@huskernut and farm out the punting reviews. Everyone needs some in-depth info on spin rate, hang time and angle of decent.
@EastOfEden, because it is a great book (though not the namesake),
@Huskerthom would be called upon to make Polynesian sure cultural awareness is present in the rankings and of the current commits I'd like to formally invite him to write up 500+ words on that on the topic.
@BasilLongfellow would provide kool-aid and love for the current team to the point we will not even need these future huskers.
Thats my team up starter pack. Not exactly all-stars, but solid. We could do some invites or special features. Example. I'd like a WR height piece from @SoCalRed if anyone can find him....
I think David Puddy might actually be a good athlete.
The great thing about you posting this list for everyone to see is if you're completely wrong, you'll be here to take your lumps.

Wasn’t me! Just giving you hell. Pretty easy to say yes with current class total of 0.Last time I did that someone followed me around for 2 months insisting I was a racist.

Thank you. Will edit. REX rating bump couldn't be withheld any longer.Guthrie checks in at 10 and 19?
What I love about your rankings is how wildly unqualified you are to do the rankings, yet you so confidently share your bloviations on them in the face of an expert like N2FL.(Comparison and @HMInfluencer)
