"This is proven by the fact that star ratings often go up as offers come in"
It seems to me that this point doesn't refer to how Stanford's coaches evaluate players as much as it offers an opinion about the possibility that star ratings follow a herd mentality. Very well may be true, but I took WIM's point to be a serious effort to substantiate the fact that star ratings have actual predictive value. Truly I offer a mea culpa if my inquiry got your dander up. I only was playing with your handle as imitative flattery of your own efforts with WIM's handle.
