Why can't I post on the national boards ? Also is there an email address for Rusty ?

Don't know why you can't post on national boards. Send an e-mail to support@247sports.com and they might be able to help.
Fixed that name for you. Best way to reach Rusty is through the site, really.

What is the difference between the 247 sports ranking and the 247 composite ranking. Also where are the cut offs for each star level.

What is the difference between the 247 sports ranking and the 247 composite ranking. Also where are the cut offs for each star level.

The 247Sports ranking is the ranking of our analysts on our network.
The 247Sports composite is an industry average of our rankings in addition to other sources.
On each rankings page you can find a small blue 'i' icon that explains it farther.
As for the cut-offs ...
247Sports Rating Explanation
Each recruit we evaluate is assigned a numerical rating as well as a star rating. Ratings are determined by our recruiting analysts after countless hours of personal observations, film evaluation, and input from our network of scouts.
Players are first grouped qualitatively with a star rating, then given a numerical rating based on their future potential, and finally ranked according to these numerical ratings.
110 - 101 = Franchise Player. One of the best players to come along in years, if not decades. Odds of having a player in this category every year is slim. This prospect has "can’t miss" talent.
100 - 98 = Five-star prospect. One of the top 30 players in the nation. This player has excellent pro-potential and should emerge as one of the best in the country before the end of his career.
97 - 90 = Four-star prospect. One of the top 300 players in the nation. This prospect will be an impact-player for his college team. He is an All-American candidate who displays pro-potential.
89 - 80 = Three-star prospect. One of the top 10% players in the nation. This player will develop into a reliable starter for his college team and is among the best players in his region of the country.
79 - below = Two-star prospect. This player makes up the bulk of Division I rosters. He may have little pro-potential, but is likely to become a role player for his respective school.

I apologize, I missed your response to this question when first asked, I actually forgot that I had asked. But thank you for the answer both times.

Well I finally sucked it up and joined after months of thinking to myself "Man, that article would be a good read". Morning Coffee could only satisfy my addiction so much.

Not sure what you mean by little characters, but if it's the check marks at top of board, those are filters to only see posts from those you follow etc ...
I believe you can post videos with link under the text box for comments.
