Arch Manning has long been regarded as the consensus No. 1 prospect for the class of 2023. A 5-star QB, son of Cooper Manning and nephew of NFL greats Peyton and Eli, Arch recently committed to Texas at the end of June.

However, another prospect – and one that could be seen in the B1G in a few seasons – has overtaken Manning in one publication. ESPN recently dropped Manning to No. 2 on its list of prospects behind QB Malachi Nelson out of Los Alamitos, California. Nelson is committed to USC who is set to begin play in the B1G during the fall of 2024.

Yeah I think I'd go with the Manning kid. Grandad was the #2 overall NFL draft pick, Uncle Peyton was a #1 overall NFL draft pick, and Uncle Eli was a #1 overall NFL draft pick.

Cooper played WR not QB, and I believe he had a genetic degenerative bone disease which made him quit football.

one of the new 'crootin' sites- On3 - has 'crootin' "analysts" predicting 2024 5* QB Jadyn Davis to Michigan. Totally sucks ass losing out on in-state 5* QB's Dante Moore (Oregon, 2023 class) and CJ Carr (ND, 2024)- but if this comes through- definitely softens the blow. Still would've liked Moore in 2023 and Davis in 2024. I'd say the hit rate for 5* QB's is akin to flipping a coin. Get two in back to back classes, well you've got a much better shot of one of them breaking through. And also: Michigan doesn't produce a ton of talent in-state, to get TWO 5* QB's is extremely rare. To land neither of them from your own state- well, not good.

I glanced at the 247 rankings, which I rarely do, and noticed how slight a difference there is between a 5 star and a higher level 4 star, but it shows up as a "quantum" shift.

Oh well.  I rarely bother because I figure they have it under control.

Those rankings and ratings are just such a complete joke.

There is a pretty good correlation between "stars" and future performance on the field.

But the suble differences in players is not.

Sure, but I'd rather have 5*s than 3*s.  And yes, plenty of 3s do quite well, but there are plenty of 3s.
