Parade All-American Team

[wiu86]

I read Tommy Kraemer made the team. That's great news. Does anyone know how these teams are selected?.Chaz Surratt, who frankly I had not heard of, is the QB. From NC, he is the 16th ranked player in NC, 11th ranked dual purpose qb and has no national rank. I ask because I thought Eason and Patterson were the top QB's this year

I was going to start a thread on that also. I live in North Carolina and I know Surratt had an offer from Clemson as well as NC, but beyond that not a list like some other QBs had.

In addition, a local kid named Rico Dowdle made the first team as an athlete. He was only a two-star until about a month ago and finished as a three-star after committing to South Carolina. He held an offer from ND but I believe it was as a preferred walk-on.

I like Dowdle better than Macintosh, but I don't think we should have taken either

 

[wiu86]

Right. Dowdle is shown as having no offer from ND.

[IRISH_FRIAR]

Yale University got more Parade 1st Team and Honorable Mention All-Americans than Notre Dame.

We had one first team and no honorable mention players and Yale had no first team and two honorable mention players.

 

[wiu86]

Yep, do not know the process selectors use. 2 Yale players. I'm sure athlete RD from SC is good but is not ranked and a very limited offer sheet.

 

[Nocalirish]

I remember a kid named McNair that was the Parade best player in the nation and never started a game for ND. No credibility there.

 

[R1950]

I honestly didn't realize Parade still existed. Best one to gauge for recruiting rankings is the 247 Composite site who averages the Scout, Rivals, ESPN, and their own.
