It's the final few days of 2020, and we've cleaned up the rankings to close out the year and give a fresh look heading into 2021.  This group has endured a lot given the loss of their junior season, but commits continue to fly off the board during the holidays.  The Senior class is at 191 college commits, including 75 division one commits, which is more than the 2020 class.  The final rankings edition of 2020 presents expansion to 400 prospects from the Volunteer State, and over 200 uncommitted prospects still on the board. No change in the Top 20, but a lot of new faces on the top uncommitted lists.

As always, the evaluation process is a fluid and ongoing process with multiple viewings in order to get the best feel for players abilities. It’s important to note that as players continue their development some show marked improvement at a much more rapid pace. That doesn’t indicate that other players got worse or went backwards, it’s just how player development works.  As the years unfold, players make improvements and new prospects pop up on the radar expanding the PBR rankings universe.  In addition to the evaluations of players, our scouts, both those in Tennessee and nationally, have also had multiple discussions with each other to review our individual lists and then make adjustments based on what we've each seen. We'll look to update a full release in March leading up to the 2021 High School season following our Preseason Event Schedule.
