These people don't know shite, its all speculation. Richardson, Debose, campbell, sentimore, randle all suposed to be tigers at one time or another this year. Im starting my own site where i let monkeys make picks for where recruits go. I'll only charge 4.95 a month and hell i have just about the same chance of being right. That is all look for www.monkeyrecruiting.com in the future.

You do realize that just because the leanings change over the season doesn't mean that it is all speculation, right?

At that point in time they may have been really leaning to that school, but later changed their mind.

It is only in the last week or two that I really follow recruiting because of this.

That's why I don't join. Sure you have to deal with folks being all weird about "premium" info but it always leaks out and it's only correct 75% of the time anyway.

Which is why I come here for my info.

I get the same BS "locks, guarantees, and predictions" for free as I would paying $10 a month. Think I'll save the cash.

just don't come here whining and complaining about your secret monkey information being spread out into the "non-subscription paying" public

You wouldn't quote a stock price on Monday and expect it to be the same on Friday, would you? No, you wouldn't. It's the same principle when it comes to recruiting. You have people constantly tweaking decision models as new information presents itself in a limited information environment. Things change. People let us know what they want us to know. Information control is a part of everyday life. It's called manipulation, but you may know it as the news.

And to all of the people stating that this is why you don't pay subscriptions, then why do you cheap asses spend as much time on this board begging for these same so-called-wild-guesses-out-of-their-asses information from people that pay?

That is all.

I agree with you. There was talk at one time that Jarvis Jones was in, and then within a week it changed to Jones had eliminated LSU. Neither piece of information was correct. I don't blame the pay services. I just think when it comes to recruiting, these situations are so volatile that it makes no sense to pay for the information. It is just too likely to change and your just as well off getting the information that is available for free. My subscription to Scout expires in 3 days, and it will be cancelled. The information that Sentimore was going to LSU only to be changed within 1 day cut it for me. The same information was available right here for free.

Funny post. I cancelled my subscription to rivals last year and haven't really regretted it. It was nice to read articles about the kids but like you stated, they're making a lot of predictions that aren't coming true. The whole McKnight thing was a fiasco for the recruiting sites who thought they had inside information that just turned out to be a big pile of hullabaloo! This year the Rueben Randle and Sentimore thing is bad enough without reading about it on the pay sites. I can get all I really want to know and more from the recruiting board here at TD. Thanks Chicken and the gang at TD!
