also, don't be surprised if Hoover loses his 4* ranking.

People were enamored with his size, which led to his high ranking, I think people are coming back to earth on him.

Not saying he isn't a good get, or will end up a fine spartan, I just think, from looking at the film (never seen him play live) that he is more a high 3* prospect than a 4*.

We will see what happens to him though

The square is seldom if ever cool ... He is "not with it", that is, he doesn't know "whats happening." But if he manages to figure it out, he moves up a notch to "hip." And if he can bring himself to approve of what's happening, he becomes "groovy." And after that, with much luck and perseverence, he can rise to the rank of "cool."
