  Sleeper
I just started playing last year, but I bench 280, and run a 4.4. and I am 6'3 despite being listed as 6'0. I grew a lot this year.

I consider myself a 2-star poster. I come through with some timely posts, and clever one liners, but I cant do it on my own. I need a 5-star like Tanfan to complement me and help me post at a higher level.
As a 2-star, I could dominate a lesser board - But I have my eyes on the prize and want to post on a forum with prestige, thus I chose the RCMB.
Edit: Thats on the Rivals scale.
Scout has me as a 4-star

When is comes to recruiting I rate myself a 3-star poster because I know my stuff mainly because I would classify myself as a recruiting nerd.
Other posts am for the most part a 2-star, ill never start a great thread but I sometimes have unique opinions that are on points.

I would say two stars, that with the right coaching and an ability to lay off the bottle I could jump to a 3 star talent quickly, or maybe drink more and become a overhyped 4 star.

my posts don't generate any buzz, but i have the uncanny ability to convince fat nerds to push themselves away from the computer and play basketball.

I committed to tRCMB today, in a huge press conference at my H.S., but I didn't even have an offer from Bitter Rivals.

Two Star (ATH)
I'd say I offer little to nothing consistent, show great flashes of talent, speak to many things well, but am an expert at nothing.
I'm just lucky to have a roster spot. When you least expect it, I may blow your mind.

*** for me, only on sports.
Redshirted my first season, finally starting to produce in my 5th year. I'm not a starter (of threads), but I'd like to say I do a pretty good job of adding to most football related discussions. I was a five-star sunshine blower, but after JLS Rivals bumped me down to a *** as I had to undergo rehab for about 4 months.
I'm a negative five-star when it comes to OT stuff though, as I rarely contribute, never go to tRCMB events and don't have the mental capacity to think of things like "My fart smelled bad today" or " how many tater tots can you eat in one setting" or even to make up terrible dating advice/dating stories.
