You can install the script as a Userscript in all popular browsers. In the future, there may be other installation methods, such as browser extensions.

Recruiting information is retrieved by scraping 247Sports annual composite recruit rankings, however, this comes with some known limitations.
-
For efficiency in searching for a recruit's name in the rankings, I'm only looking through the first 5 pages(top 250 recruits). If you want to change this, replace the
maxPage
constant with a value of your choosing.const maxPage = 5;
- There's a max of ~10 pages with 50 recruits per page
-
Inconsistencies in the player's name on ESPN and 247Sports may lead to the script not finding the player's ranking.
