Partially, but at the same time, everyone needs to realize how many prospects there are across the country. A private entity only has so many resources for evaluation. Some guys simply slide under the radar.

Exactly. Buzz creates more buzz. One good write up usually brings others, which turns into a feeding frenzy.

However, if there no buzz generated or it comes too late, dozens of very talented recruits fall through the cracks. There's at least 100,000 high school football players for every Scout or Rivals evaluator.
