We haven’t seen defense like this in Norman in ages. Unfortunately, we haven’t seen offense like this in Norman in ages.

Ben Arbuckle says it was the best week of practice the offense has had since he's been at OU. Says they have to figure out how to get it to translate.

There’s been a ton of interest in Rivals Recruits, and I wanted to address some topics around the product. This service primarily targets FCS and below athletes. Rivals Recruits is a product we have been building for a couple of years, and we see a huge need for it in the market. For decades, we have focused most of our efforts on elite/blue-chip prospects while underserving the vast majority of high school athletes. This platform and scouting product give athletes and parents more education on the recruiting process and a better understanding of where they fit in the ecosystem. • AI is not involved in the scouting evaluations. • The reports are thorough and take many scouting hours to produce. It is a costly endeavor because of the hours each scout puts into the process. • The same scouts who evaluate the blue chips create the evaluations. This doesn’t change the coverage and scouting of the star-rated and blue-chip players. Rivals has done a great job uncovering these elites for decades. So many players go unnoticed, and Rivals has an enormous platform to tell these stories and address an underserved area of the market. We are giving honest feedback. Athletes/parents can choose to display or not display their scouting evaluation and grade publicly once it is delivered. Our scouts take great pride in the quality of their grades and evaluations.

1.04M kids played HS football last season. About 6,600 held a Rivals star rating… roughly 0.6%. That's not a talent gap. It's a capacity gap. Our scouts have always focused on FBS prospects, and FCS, D-II, NAIA and D-III kids rarely get their film watched. Rivals Recruits puts the same scouts, held to the same standards, on more of that film. You can pay for an evaluation. You can't pay for the result. Great resource and link for all college coaches and scouts. More opportunities for athletes. on3.com/rivals/rankings/rada…
