[quote=Anonymous]My take on ratings. Every recruiting consultant and coach will tell you they don’t matter.  Inside Lacrosse is, however, widely read and cited.  Schools measure recruiting classes on how many 4 and 5 stars they land, for example.

IL has a consistent methodology, but it is applied by individuals who perceive things differently, and at a moment in time—a showcase, game, or video evaluation—that is necessarily affected by the level of competition. I have noted significant variances and an element of grade inflation or deflation based on where a player was seen and against whom. The same players are an 82 one day and within a month, an 88.  That’s probably not possible.

So, do they matter? Not really.  A lot of great players at great programs who never got a rating. Is it probable that a top recruit at a top program has one, or at least a star rating? Yes. But correlation is not causation. It’s a welcome thing if your daughter angers a good one, but it’s not essential at all.[/quote]
