Year 1 - 6.8 points
Year 2 - 8.8 points
Year 3 - 4.2 points

And the range is from zero to 13 points a game. And the 13 points was from Year 3 when the average was 4.2! You can't predict what a guy will score based upon his numerical rank -- not with any accuracy, anyway. There are lots of other, better indicators of those types of things. Eyeballing, for example, is probably way more accurate than that, and I suspect you can do that quite well, Saluki.

A) You don't use average, goofball, you use median.
B) It isn't a predictor it's a guideline.

The premise of this discussion was in relation to Jonas Jordan claiming Cleregot to be an impact player. My statement was simply that based upon a simple peek at his recruiting ranking and how similarly situated recruits from previous seasons, it would be unlikely that Keon would be an impact player.

If you had said that to begin with, you would've had no issue from me. In fact, I would've agreed.
