Recruiting Ratings

 Sully's College Football Page (SCFP) recruiting data is based on three sites: ESPN, 247 Sports, & Rivals. We calculate a 4 year average in each site (Independent of one another) we then take the 4 year average of each site, add them together, and then we divide that total by three (3) to get a composit score.

Some of the results are/were quite susprising ... 1) Vanderbilt's four year composit score was identical to Washington's, (43.4), who played for the national championship last year (2023); 2) Nebraska, who has not been to a bowl game since losing the Music City Bowl to Tennessee, 38-24, in 2016. is a top 25 recruiring program; and finally, 3) Notre Dame, under Marcus Freeman, continue to improve their team rank, the Irish are now the 7th best recruiting program in the country.
