A 79 rating from ESPN are they nuts? Dude should be in the high 80s!

Rivals sounds like they'll be upgrading Colt's ratings after this past weeks performance

After being a standout against the best they all better rework their ratings...we weren't the only ones impressed!

I guess the sites haven't had a chance to review their ratings, yet!

Another player that should move up is Christian French, as he had a pretty good game on defense.

Yeah, after everyone claiming he is a freak of an athlete i don't understand how he is not a ESPN 150 player.

Because he wasn't playing in their Under Armour All-American Game.

I imagine that his lack of one true position causes a little more doubt regarding how high to rank him.

No kidding. I don't understand why he isn't the #1 ATH on Rivals. On Rivals "scouting report" they list grade speed, size, strength, agility and athleticism. Colt's ratings are "blue chip", "blue chip", "blue chip", "as good as it gets", "as good as it gets", respectively. That's better than anyone in the country, even the 5* players like Clowney, Wilder Jr., De'Anthony Thomas, etc.

I recall listening to Rivals Mike Farrell a few wks ago and he said Colt is their #1 "jumbo ATH". They also have 1-2 other #1 ATHs, but in different size categories.

I watched him commit and I fist pumped then left it in the air for a minute. It feels funny doing that kinda stuff when you are at home alone.

Hilarious.... I did the same thing....

i celebrated his declaration by giving myself a colt lyerla haircut.

Because the rankings are based on how talented they'd be at their projected positions. For example, Rivals may believe De'Anthony Thomas will end up being a better RB or Corner than Colt will be a LB or TE, thus, he's rated higher.

And for what it's worth, the Black Mamba deserves to be the #1 rated athlete based on what I've seen. Dude can play, and he's equally dynamic on both sides of the ball.

Rivals has already stated that they do not have Lyerla ranked as high as he could because of his off the field rumors. I still think he's in for big rise after this last week

His highlight tape certainly got me excited about him. He is definitely 5 star talent.
