[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s worth saying out loud: a large portion of player rankings require payment just to be evaluated. Many athletes and families opt out because they value development and performance over purchasing a star rating. Within the sport, it’s widely understood how these rankings are generated.[/quote]

In the boys 2027, almost every single 4, 5 and top 100 player was committed before anyone else. Exceptions were exceptionally high gpa’s and personal connections. Schools rate players and reinforce those decisions with players slotting up or down. [/quote]

Those players would have already been highly sought after by top schools even before star and numerical ratings came out. Y'all are trying to understand how rankings, ratings, BIC invites, and early commitments are interconnected, but are overlooking the causal factor behind all of these: actually being good at lacrosse and/or demonstrating significant potential.[/quote]

Some yes, talent is so great, they are on everyone’s radar. Many are just as talent as the next 100 that aren’t ranked though. Watching the 2027s for years made that apparent, lots of politics, whose last name is who, club affiliation, etc goes a long way. [/quote]
