Class of 2017: Top 30 Southeast Texas Football Recruits


Recommended Posts

Top 30 greater BMT golden triangle. (Why sports writers from the area continue to consider bmT to be southeast Texas exclusively blows my mind. Nevertheless, good  for the kids in the triangle to get some praise. Several good athletes left out of the conversation from even BMT area though.

This list is very inaccurate... No offense to the kids, but being a top recruit isn't based on talent or skill. It is your projection to the next level. Some of these kids are not sized accurately for their position to be labeled "a top recruit"

Very true.  Nothing against the kids but college coaches are going to be a lot more interested in a guy like Corbin Carr (#22) at 6'5" 300 lbs vs Jack Dallas (#3) as a 5'9" QB

It also says top recruits for the area, not for the state or the country. So besides a few names that could be argued, I don't see how the list is very inaccurate. The 30th "best" (however you determine that) recruit in SETX usually won't have the same recruiting notice that the 30th best in D/FW, Houston, etc has.

And being a top recruit is based on some skill or talent. Some HS players have done more at this level and may plateau in college, some didnt do as much in HS and are going off of potential, some are a combination. But to say it's not based off of talent or skill at all isn't accurate in my opinion.
