▪️My formula for coming up with these rankings:
-(per team it is 25 minus 5 year recruiting ranking average + 5 points per five star + 3 points per top 100 four star + 1 point per subsequent blue chip player/4 star. I then deduct .5 from every roster that does not hit the 85 player roster limit and/or has two star (non power 5 level players) on their 85 man rosters= Final point total)
