Some of these players turn out to be really good recruits and others fall in line with their recruiting ranking. As time goes on, one of the Illini commits who continues to prove his recruiting ranking to possibly be way off is Kyron Cumby.
Cumby is a 5-foot-8, 177-pound running back from Plano High School in Plano, Texas. He is rated as a three-star recruit who is the No. 1063 player in the class of 2019 and the No. 137 player in the state of Texas.
I see this recruiting ranking, and I try to justify the recruiting ranking that lands Cumby in the sub-1000’s.
