College Football Coaches Poll 2024: Complete Week 2 Rankings Released

It's extremely difficult to find the highest of high-risers when it comes to recruiting classes. That's why analysts have such thankless positions. You comb through hours of film (the ones you have available), go to games, evaluate statistics and try to be 100 different places at once watching every kid you can. Then, the fan bases across the country tell you you're an idiot for having Player XYZ ranked too low.

At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.
