rivals has star ratings and also number ratings. i think 6.0 is where 5 stars starts. 5.3-5.6 is 3 star range
 
5.5 refers to his "Rivals Rating". :smile:

6.1 is a *****
5.8-6.0 is a ****
5.5-5.7 is a ***
5.0-5.4 is a **
4.9 is a *

Explanation from the Rivals site:

The ranking system ranks prospects on a numerical scale from 6.1-4.9.

6.1 Franchise Player; considered one of the elite prospects in the country, generally among the nation's top 25 players overall; deemed to have excellent pro potential; high-major prospect

6.0-5.8 All-American Candidate; high-major prospect; considered one of the nation's top 300 prospects; deemed to have pro potential and ability to make an impact on college team

5.7-5.5 All-Region Selection; considered among the region's top prospects and among the top 750 or so prospects in the country; high-to-mid-major prospect; deemed to have pro potential and ability to make an impact on college team

5.4-5.0 Division I prospect; considered a mid-major prospect; deemed to have limited pro potential but definite Division I prospect; may be more of a role player

4.9 Sleeper; no Rivals.com expert knew much, if anything, about this player; a prospect that only a college coach really knew about
 
FWIW, the other young guy that has been mentioned is Deji Olatoye. So our highest rated and lowest rated guys in the class look like players. Go figure.
