Dia Bell is the No. 1 QB in the ESPN300 after winning Elite 11 MVP

[Jeff Howe]

He’s the No. 4 overall prospect in the ESPN300. Only Lamar Brown (No. 1), Maryland EDGE commit Zion Elee (No. 2) and Miami offensive tackle commit Jackson Cantwell (No. 3) are ranked higher than Bell.

Mike Tyson overvall badass 1. Still not Raja Kobe.

Lulz.  Rivals is home of Adam Gorney.  Got his feewings hurt when Arch wouldn’t return his messages.

I haven’t paid much mind to Rivals’ rankings in years.

Rivals lost a lot of credibility a few years back when TJ Shanahan was their # 1 player in Texas, I think # 1 IOL player in the nation and a borderline 5* while ALL the other services had him much lower.  Went to A&M, not sure if he started but transferred out.

I think not long after this much ridiculed assessment On3 and 247 changed their Composite rankings to lower the % given to Rivals.  Hard to take them seriously.

I only notice because I like how On3 does the ratings for all 4 services and they are the turd in the punch bowl of the group.

I know internally at 247, the Rivals rankings were taken with a large grain of salt.

On3 and 247 have a better feel for rankings than Rivals or ESPN. The NFL draft should continue to prove that to be the case.

Awesome!   So much attention this summer by some to lack of elite talent we’ve locked in to 2026 class on offense but in reality, it all starts with having QB1.   
 

Hook em!  🧡🐂🤘🏼
