You're not entirely wrong, I did not watch his film.  But other power 5 coaches do, and they aren't biting.  I'm not staying that Nebraska needs every recruit to be a 4* player. High 3* players are very fine and can into solid players, but there's a reason this kid has offers from Kent St and the like.

Also, star rankings correlate heavily to success and identifying elite players. For example in the 2018 NFL draft, 57% of 5* we're drafted, 23.6% of 4* players, but only 6.9% of 3* players.  The 2017 class was similar, 65% of 5* players were drafted, 23% of 4* players, but only 5% of 3* players.

I guess you're main argument is that because I don't watch his tape, that I'm behind unfair.  Maybe I am, but I guess I trust offer lists and recruiting services more than Rose colored glasses on Huskerboard.  I want Nebraska to be successful as much as you do. I guess we just see the path differently.  

You see developing guess who might be under the radar, I see star rankings.

Everything you have stated in this thread - is true from a long-term standpoint.  I think SF knows we need a majority of our class to be 4* and better, however he also knows that he needs to build a culture first.  If you bring in the right kind of kids that are willing to fight and then each year you upgrade the talent level then you have something 6 years down the road.  TO was the best at finding kids that hadn't matured yet and after 2 or 3 years in the correct culture became resources for the team.

 
Season stats include 29 tackles (3 for loss), 7 pass breakups, 3 INTs (2 returned for TDs), 1 fumble recovery, 3 blocked field goals and 1 safety.
