Can one of you Einsteins explain the connection with 247 Sports, FSP and Heir Academy

I asked him about a couple prospects who came through the state who were highly ranked big-name prospects.
He said something to the effect of "take those rankings for a grain a salt. He said the people who them together are tied in with Tracy Ford and the guy at Heir (don't remember his name) and those kids tend to be ranked too high because of some buddy-buddy shit." He just kind of laughed about it.
What made me think about it is seeing Julien Simon's name in the transfer portal. He was a Top 150-ish prospect nationally coming out of Tacoma according to 247 but was buried on the depth chart even with USC's shit defense.

Washington blue chips have under performed. No question
Emeka at Ohio State has probably been the best
Willing to bring some guys back to see though -
2020 four stars from Washington (8): Gee Scott (No. 37 nationally), Savell Smalls (59), Levi Rogers, Geirean Hatchett, Ayden Hector, Sam Adams Jr, DJ Rogers, Alphonse Oywak
2021 five/four stars from Washington (11): JT Tuimoloau (2), Emeka Egbuka (9), Sam Huard (23), Owen Prentice, Julien Simon, Clay Millen, Lonyatta Alexander, Jabez Tinae, Jacob Schuster, Josh McCarron, Will Latu
2022 five/four stars from Washington (7): Josh Conerly (8); Tobias Meriweather (80); Ryan Otton; Dishawn Misa, Tristan Dunn; Dave Iuli
Some those guys from the 2020 class already appeared destined to portaled out to MWC/Big Sky type programs -
Rankings mean nothing
If 247 (or these other places) were decent evaluators, they'd have a job at a school instead
I trust the coaches -
I've decided that the main things that matter are (non QB) that the kid is big and fast. The rest of the shit can be taught.

Ford and Jones are cousins. Both played for Idaho, and maybe even Portland State at one point, and Jones got a sniff at the NFL but I don't think he ever played a down during the regular season (which is still better than almost everyone).
This article basically shows how heir formed from rise.
