Paraphrasing him from a podcast he did on The Athletic:

“After years of traveling to camps and those shaping a lot of evaluations this year we are now able to bury ourselves into prospects film. In the past we have looked more at highlights but now we are consuming tons of film and getting more of a true football evaluation on these kids that we otherwise couldn’t have gotten due to time restraints. It is more of a true college football coaching way to make a recruiting board.”

“We also have certified camp measurements, track times and basketball film we have been studying.”

“This very well may change how we go about the rankings process. We think it will be better.”

Food for thought...
