2022 Recruiting Class Thread

NIL. Meyer Dairy and Creamery are going to get into a bidding war in terms of how many scoops of free ice cream and student athlete can get during each visit.
Will this finally get Allar his fourth (or fifth) star on Rivals?
If he finishes at or near the top by the end of the Elite11 event, I imagine he'll get a nice bump.
IIRC, Veilleux had a really strong opening session last year, then faded a bit as the event went on. Allar is a much better arm talent, but I'll be curious to see how he looks in mobility drills. He's a much better downfield thrower than Veilleux, based on the scouting reports at least. Veilleux did well in short passing scenarios.
Safe to say he's one of the top arm talents in this class. Possibly #2 behind Ewers -- and that's no small feat seeing as though Ewers is being called the best pure arm talent since Matthew Stafford.
Going to have some misses this cycle which sucks - but the Allar commitment is huge. IMO, the biggest missing piece has been the elite level QB.
Camps don’t always prove much, and prospecting QBs can be difficult, so Allar might end up being a bust. But the Allar/Pribula combo is the most important aspect of this class.

A ton of good buzz coming out of Elite11/Allar. Everyone talks about his arm talent + flick of the wrist capability + Mahomes-esque arm angles. Have we heard anything about accuracy? Not diminishing anything here, just trying to wrap my head around it all.
SI is the outlier by ranking Drew Allar as the No. 13 QB after Day 1:

Compared to the last 2 classes a lot more hits than misses.
How can one reporter rank guys first and second while the second reporter ranks them in the bottom half?
Well, they are SI, so I’m sure they’re just trying to get people to go to their website.
Here is the SI story - glad to see they’re the outlier. Nothing really negative to say about Allar - just have him rated really low. They had Ewers at 10 too.
Elite 11 2021: Ranking the Quarterbacks After Day One
Sports Illustrated All-American has compiled its quarterback rankings based off of the first day of the Elite 11 Finals.
SI says Allar "is somewhat methodical in his drops." Can any of you translate that? Does it mean he's slow to set up? Doesn't have happy feet like some QBs we've had in the past?
Looks like Nick Singletons commitment date of July 6th has been deleted and removed from certain websites. Hopefully it’s just a logistics change, and not a change of heart.
Rivals?

Rivals?
We don't have no stinking Rivals!
Why does rivals rate Allar 5.7 3*? A case of not being able to see him in person? Or just a legit take on his potential/skill set?
Not bashing, I know these outlets have differing criteria/camps they base things off of - just wondering.

Rivals is pretty bad a lot of times on the rankings, so much so that I don't even pay attention to their rankings anymore. Not relevant.
Taking the original report with a grain of salt...despite the implication of the deleted tweet, is it confirmed that said timeline event ever actually appeared on a "certain website"? If nothing was actually scheduled (or intended to be shared publicly) then there would be nothing to "cancel".
EDIT: Nevermind...see the 6th post below this one by ChiTownLion.

Recruiting: Five things we learned in June
You won't find many prospects who had a better month on the camp circuit than Kaden Saunders.
Bill O'Brien was calling the Saunders family every single day trying to get Kaden to flip to Alabama. Kaden eventually responded with his "107% Locked In" tweet to affirm that he's sticking with Penn State.

Until one of our guys is rated higher by Rivals than the other recruiting sites…
Hey, if BOB loved him, the same pro-BOB / Franklin isn't recruiting good enough crowd should be slightly excited...

It appears that a second Michigan State insider has now recorded a Singleton to PSU CB.
