industry-wide aggregate rating for each recruiting prospect. The formula includes
publicly listed grades, scores, ratings and rankings by national recruiting services,
along with a Clemson Sports Talk rating. Combining the data provides a rating for each prospect,
which is then normalized to fit the Clemson Sports Talk Rating 100-point scale.
The intent of this rating is to provide Clemson Sports Talk readers with a comprehensive snapshot of
how individual prospects rank nationally.
