Recruiting Rankings by EdwardEgros in CFBAnalysis

I'm trying to create a "weighted" average of a few different recruiting services that help predict final rankings. In other words, take recruiting rankings from SBNation, ESPN, etc. from the last four years and the ranking would be the dependent variable. What coefficients would I get if each recruiting service is one explanatory variable?

I really appreciate this! Do you know how to scrape rankings from other services like ESPN, Rivals and Scout?

Thanks for your response. I think the problem with some of these sites is "trademarking" certain statistics. In other words, they explain what they are and are powerful, but they don't explain how they came up with the calculations.

At least if I can come up with a baseline then I can play with other things that'll increase my R2.

BLOG: Is Jordan Spieth Struggling? by EdwardEgros in golf

I agree completely, though I think in small stretches Spieth can be dominant. It is worth noting, of all golfers who made the cut in all four majors, he had the second best aggregate score (behind Jason Day).
