I go on 24/7 and can not find any evidence that the rankings have changed. Even individual rankings are the same as they have been. Where are yall getting the info that the rankings have upgraded?

The 247 rankings have change, which are the rankings done by 247. You can see those if you go on a player's profile below the name box, where it says "247 sports" which is their own ranking. The composite ranking is the one that takes all of the major recruiting sites into account, I think the 247 ranking accounts for 1/3 here. So naturally, you won't see big movements in the composite if guys only change a couple of spots in the 247 ranking. 

There used to be a graph on the player profiles which showed their development in both the 247 and composite ranking, but I think they got rid off it when they remodeled the site. 

Anyways, e.g. Jalen Green got a nice bump in the composite, putting him up to 42, I think he was in the 60-90 range before today.

Back to recruiting, couple of news out of today which I haven't read here so far:

- Keys is supposed to visit on the weekend of the 26th

- Ojomo is supposedly visiting on the same weekend, but IMO he is OU's to lose as of today, but if we get him on campus we do have a good shot

- We are back in with Tommy Bush, the WR out of Schertz; the staff went by to visit today. Apparently, this has nothing to do with how they feel about current recruits, but more about possible attrition among WRs. The Duvernay twins are believed to be serious transfer candidates, opening up another spot for an outside WR. Tommy was high on us in the summer and was pretty, pretty close to committing I believe, so we will see how this turns out after the staff hasn't been talking to him a lot over the past couple of months. He has still one or two OVs unscheduled I believe, so getting him on campus would obviously also be good news

Read elsewhere that the Duvernay brothers may be asking for their release. As a result, the staff is asking Tommy Bush to take an OV. He has the measurables. May be worrh take a flier on him. Not to mention that it may open a spot for another big body. Assuming that what I read is true.

I hate that. I had hoped that Devin would be a Percy Harvin type of player for us, but it just never clicked or he wasn't utilized in the right way. Either way, good luck to the twins.

Likewise. He was the biggest pearl in the Baylor defections. I had visions of him blowing the top off of defenses.

Rice Grad transfer OL Calvin Anderson will visit this weekend!

He is/was nails, always made the catch, but just doesn't seem to have the wiggle you need in the slot nor the size you need to be a straight line guy. Good luck to him if he goes and still hoping he stays.

Wouldn’t surprise me if they end up looking for another home.
