I know many will take exception, but Over hyping or just hyping recruits at this point of any year is to early to call them studs, outstanding, super, shutdown CBs etc. if they are not already rated by most services as at least a 4* recruit. If they have not made enough of a name for themselves, by the end of their junior seasons the are just average recruits at best.
That is not to say they won't show it during their senior year, but if you can't rate them more than average after 3 years of HS and all the coverage that they get these days, then all the superlative type adjectives shouldn't be used at this stage. They get over sold to us and then if they don't come in and stand out from day one they are targeted as failures by the internet.
