We are now at the time when PITT’s recruit starts to take off so we should review the different Recruiting Sites and see how they compare in their ranking systems.
As you can see below, each one is different in some aspects. Sometimes we see that difference writ large with a single player as happened with QB Mark Myers when he was graded out by these services. Here is Myers’ scores and stars along with our seven 2016 recruits already onboard. Note that ESPN does most of their rankings later in the game.
| RECRUIT | 247 | ESPN | RIVALS | SCOUT |
| Mark Myers ‘10 | 86 3* 23rd | 74 2* 103rd | 5. |
