How does a 1st team All-American placekicker only get two stars? Especially when that same ranking service lists a different kicker as 4 stars?
Maybe stars matter, but there are serious flaws and biases to the methodology and the coverage is often very, very spotty. Unless recruits market themselves both in summer camps and in playing the recruiting game (i.e. not committing early so that big schools can offer them, thus raising their profile), they will almost automatically be underrated, particularly if they don't live in a "major market".
