That's the "Fickell Factor".

Just checked his rank history...he went up 100 spots overall yesterday. Damn...lol
I believe he had a really good showing at one of the combines that was in Cincy last weekend. I think the Royer kid at Elder did too.
Huge pickup for the program. 4-star on 247, #6 prospect in Ohio, plays QB. Huge on so many levels.

Yeah, the uptick in his rating was already in the works. Bill Greene noted a week or so ago that he thought he was a 4*, and had put that in motion, however it is a national guy's job to execute it.
Him committing to UC wasn't going to affect anything. He's been putting on a show for all to see.

RE: FB Class of 2020
NC WR spent a year committed to Tennessee but opened things up in March. Might not want to read too much into the tweet though as my sense is he might like attention.
Here's a S. Carolina article on him from about 2 weeks ago with no specific mention of UC:
Quote:Barber said he has offers from N.C. State, Florida State, Virginia Tech, Virginia, Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Syracuse and others.

RE: FB Class of 2020
UC and others interested in Simeon HS, IL OG Marcus Harper II. He recently de-committed from Illinois.
Also re: 2021:
Quote:Hillcrest sophomore running back Mar'Kiese Irving (5-foot-10, 178 pounds) has seen his recruiting stock soar this week. Irving has added offers this past week from Illinois, Duke and Cincinnati. He is now holding 10 offers and that amount figures to grow.

He didn't participate in the UA combine that was in Cincy. He hasn't done any of the big national/regional camps this spring. The regional and national guys at 247 all had a very high opinion of Prater, so it was a matter of everyone getting on the same page and moving him up as they all felt he should be a 4 star guy...

Do you forsee him being a guy that goes to the summer circuit now that he's committed, or will his ranking stay relatively flat now (barring any significant positive or negative development during his senior year)?

I could see him throwing at one of the UC camps, but I don’t think he’ll do any of the national ones...

RE: FB Class of 2020
Lakota West graduate Xavier Peters enters NCAA transfer portal to leave Florida State
Wilfong of 247 is cited as a source and here's his article. "The industry-generated 247Sports Composite ranked Peters as the nation’s No. 12 outside linebacker, No. 6 recruit overall in the state of Ohio and No. 174 prospect nationally in that 2018 class." Peters says this is all about being closer to his one-year-old son, but also talks about wanting to look at schools in the B10 and SEC going forward.
Hmmm...

RE: FB Class of 2020
i'd be shocked if Uc doesn't reach out to him. I'm sure Freeman is very familiar with him. Was he suspended recently and he was reinstated or did he decide to transfer when they suspended him? 4 years of eligibility and i'm guessing a good shot at getting a waiver with his kid in Cincy?

I don't know all that artsy fartsy stuff, I'm a numbers guy! I thought the graphic was scaling itself when I put it up, but it doesn't seem to be doing it anymore. So I switched it out. Thanks for the heads-up and sorry for any inconvenience.

"Peters has been missing from practice since the Seminoles returned from spring break on March 27.
...He briefly entered his name in the NCAA Transfer Portal in December before removing his name from consideration and announcing his intention to remain with the Seminoles."
Tallahassee Democrat says he was suspended for violation of team rules.
Interesting news about Xavier Peters; I hope he becomes a Bearcat.
