[NU Sports] Recruiting

Also found this tidbit in today's Sun-Times:
 
 http://www.suntimes.com/output/quickhits/cst-spt-1hit01.html
 
(about halfway down, 'Prep Star Rolle is No Lemming')
 
Surprising that they would let Elliott Harris include this, since the Sun-Times quotes Lemming (and his praise of Notre Dame) endlessly.
 
ESPN's website seemed to be referencing Scout in most of their stories, but I never found the exact ranking there.

ESPN Radio in Chicago reported the following 'ratings' for the football classes 
signed today:
 
Northwestern   68th
 
Illinois             39th
 
Notre Dame       5th
 
A few observations.
 
I am not sure what or who their source was (they did not report that).
 
I seem to recall every ND recruiting class being rated in the top 10, but not 
alot of their teams have finished in the top 10 (lately).
 
If it is believable - 68th is not a rating that we should be achieving, 
especially if newcomer Ron Zook is coming in 39th.
 
If it is not believable or well-regarded, what ARE some very trustworthy rating 
services, and how did we finish in those ?
