Is this fair? Can we agree on that?
I can't agree on that unless you can show me some data to back it up. Also, you ought to limit it to players that receive scholarships to play as there may be a plethora of 2 star recruits that never get any serious looks from Div 1-A schools.

As I said before, of course stars are meaningful. However, they are not the be all end all because all HS players are not and can not be evaluated equally. It's just not possible from a logistical perspective.
