Looking for opinions on which is the better site for recruiting/general program info?

Like the listing of the 4 service independent ratings on On3. I feel like 247 has more stories and news but that may be just because I have not cruised their site that much.

247 is much much better. Better stories and rankings are much more in line.

I’m on both. I like Billy’s bball coverage although I thought he was informed on football too. Matt (247) has picked up on the bball since Billy left. That said, I think On3 is more comprehensive for rankings and coverage for all sports. I think 247 does football well.

I’m still 247, however, on3 can be really good. They are a nice alternative and I welcome competition in the market as a fan.

Right now I give 247 the edge based on greater resources at this time. On3 is doing a nice job. They just need to build up their resources. I think they will.

247, Shea has a plant (his lovely wife) inside the program feeding the inside scoop to him then on to subscribers.

247 ... on3 ask interview questions like a third grader with a crayon. Lame. The message board, at least in my eyes, is lame and non existent. At least 247 asks some football questions that are more interesting and I like the message board. Similar to the Rant without a lot of the name calling. Just my opinion.

If you’re going to pay for LSU information in the year 2022 (you shouldn’t), you should at least give it to Sonny and Shea

They are the best in the business

It’s cheap. Get both. You’ll have more interaction on 247 and get Paramount+ to boot.

Billy and the National guy with ON3 have better basketball info, but no baseball content at all.

I will always have Rivals first. They are the original gangstas of this recruiting shite.

Honestly, I prefer the format at Rivals to 24/7 or On3. Much easier to read...

That he never passes on to his subscribers! Dude or site for that matter, has never been the same since the 5 for 5 debacle. They are scared shite-less to break any news over there until its signed sealed and delivered. But believe it or not they have several good insiders that usually have spot on info, if you throw out the Football coaching search, to which nobody had a clue.

On3 is hit or miss for me right now Billy's strength is MBB which he's very good at. The home run would have been if Speigleman would have hired to be dedicated to the local site instead of being more national.

There’s a reason the Cap switched to On3… just saying.

Your timing is kinda suspect, On3(Jamie Shaw) was ahead of everyone on the basketball front.

Wiltfong(247) is still the guy when it comes to football recruiting.

Billy has better national recruiting connections and even better LSU connections now with this new staff than Sonny and Shea

Also On3 has better rankings - they have all the old 247 rankings guys like Charles Power

I've noticed that over the last few months, 247's site hasn't worked properly. Some links don't work. Some drop tabs don't work. Really disappointing as they were the best for a long time. I just seems like they don't care anymore.
