His best-fitting offers first; pick any 4 of Zak's 5 to compare. Green is the best in each row. Room counts the players at his spot with two or more years left. Players like him: up to five past recruits whose offer boards looked most like his and who signed at that school, from classes whose careers are over; a real season means 100+ passes, 50+ carries, 15+ catches, 25+ tackles, 3+ sacks or 2+ interceptions. Offensive linemen and defenders from classes before 2016 are not in that row: the box score does not count linemen's work and has no tackles before 2016. History, not a forecast for him. How fit is made.

The 50 past recruits with the boards closest to his, from classes 2010 to 2021, whose careers are over. College seasons from CFBD rosters, on record for 21 of 50. No rate for a real season here: the stats can judge none of those, because the box score has no tackles before 2016. History, not a forecast for him.

Past boards are offers at signing day; his is the board he holds today (Nov 12, 2026).
