Wolverine247 Board

I love it. Gives that many more eyes to average out the potential of a recruit.

Thanks, I agree. With all the other recruiting services out there, it really gives a good idea of how are rankings compare and like you said, more eyes. Its unique too, nothing out there like it.

Pardon my newbness, but where can one view the composite rankings?

Ok I see what your saying. What don't you like about composite used for team rankings?

I like the talent here at 247. I read the articles here and would rather have the rankings based entirely on how these analysts feel. The staff here is open to answering questions, and JC et al. don't mind explaining why guys are ranked where they are. These are but a few of the reasons why I don't belong to any other site.

I like it, easier way to see a prospects average rating, rather than research every major site.

This.

I love it all though.

I understand what the Industry Rank is but please explain to me the composite rank. How is the composite calculated?

Thanks for the support!

I would like it if you didn't base your team rankings on it.
If I could see it as secondary (and not used in your rankings), I would really like it.
However, I think you all are becoming the best in the business and to drag your team rankings down by incorporating what I feel are inferior ratings does not sit well with me, jmo

The only thing that i don't like is when you go football recruiting and click on football commits it shows the composite rankings rather then 247 rankings beside each player. I wish it showed both or just your rankings. Great idea though!!

Good idea. Things to consider:
1) your copy suggest the 247 rankings are not as good. That devalues your brand. Bad idea for copy.
2) its good to be more transparent on who is included and how everthing is calculated: How do you handle it where recruits are not ranked at all? Some sites just provide stars which have little granularity and some do the opposite etc. How do you handle all this? Opening it up subjects you to debate but that gets people talking and means more page views.
3) you could open up your methodology and let people customize their own lists and rankings for their team ...making it more sticky. Lots of users have created their own composite. Let them do that with your data to start.
4) I'm on mobile and many of the features don't show up. Make that clear in the description. Better yet make mobile the place to innovate. Right now you lead in mobile but it's not where you innovate. The trend is people are giving up their desktop. Without a mobile first strategy you leave yourself open to competition.
