Scout 300 for 2013 Updated

Ohio WR Jaron Dukes picked up a fourth star from Scout

Scout released its updated Scout 300 on Wednesday, which means I’m convinced – there’s been a conspiracy to give me carpal tunnel by 247 Sports, ESPN, and Scout.  They all released or updated their 2013 lists this week.

Here’s the movement of the Michigan commits since March.  What’s the point of updating the rankings if there’s this little movement?  A total of 14 Michigan commits moved a total of 13 spots.

– Shane Morris stayed put at #28
– Patrick Kugler dropped from #25 to #29
– Dymonte Thomas stayed put at #39
– Kyle Bosch stayed put at #49
– DeVeon Smith jumped from #58 to #53
– Chris Fox stayed put at #137
– Jake Butt stayed put at #147
– Logan Tuley-Tillman stayed put at #153
– Wyatt Shallman stayed put at #179
– Mike McCray stayed put at #202
– Gareon Conley jumped from #227 to #226
– Jourdan Lewis stayed put at #251
– David Dawson dropped from #264 to #265
– Jaron Dukes dropped from #287 to #289

Average Recruiting Class Rankings: 2002-2012

I decided to try to collect data on recruiting team rankings for Michigan over the last decade or so.  Rivals and Scout are the oldest internet sites and therefore have the deepest set of data.  Meanwhile, Tom Lemming is the oldest recruiting guru, but the info about his rankings is the least accessible.  If you happen to have information to fill in some of the blanks on the chart, I’d be happy to find it.  Thanks ahead of time for any help you can provide.
