No SC fans think he's going there. SC has sanctions, a deeper o-line, lesser academics, crappy coaches, and a dick for a head coach. Is he really going to SC so his parents can attend his home games? Stanford develops players into NFL talent. Most of SC's top talent transfers. As for Banner being higher on Rivals that surprises me if true. I read he gets beat by quick 4-3 DEs due to being so large.

My sense is that Banner saw his rating jump a lot after the final all-star games when he performed better than expected against top talent.  I think people assumed he would be beaten by the quicker DEs but he more than held his own.  I'm no fan of SC, but they have a pretty good history of getting OL into the NFL.  But I do think Murphy will end up at Stanford, along with Shittu and Winston.
