Well, glad I could read between the lines and knew that was coming.... Got tired of saying things on here just to be told how wrong an assumption is, but clearly people missed the hint his mom said... Guess they were too busy praising saying that's the type of moms we need....well:

“With Zacchaeus, it’s teamwork. He just wants to be a part of the team. It’s no ‘I’s’ or ‘me’s’ or five stars (hint, XT who chose Clemson over Carolina). It’s I want to be part of the team.”

I.e. he is going to a place with no 5 stars, a place he can try to stand out on the team, not have other 5 star guys to compete against to get the spot. She had already stated it like it was about team work... But really, why mention exactly "5 stars".... Guess we know how Muschamp was selling him and his mom now.

No I gather it from her words of "no 5 stars"... Think it's pretty clear that way when you don't assume that's lumped in with the team, no I or me, mentality and take the words for their base meaning.

# of recruiting stars doesn't have anything to do with teams with a bunch of "me" players. So whomever had been talking to her has her convinced his 5 stars wouldn't stand out around a bunch of 5 stars. "Come here if you don't want other 5 stars to be put in front of him"... Otherwise, why mention 5 stars at all... Why not 4 stars... Why not seniors? Why not "people that have been there longer".... Why mention specifically "5 stars"??

Sounds like words from a recruiting tactic targeting his star rating. Also sounds like she's focusing on star ratings of other players vs her son in that case by mentioning star rating.
