Calling out recruits on message boards is bush league.
#1: They're 17/18 years old and making one of the biggest decisions of their lives.
#2: Coaches and recruiters are often jerking them around somewhat, as they try to figure out who they need where.
#3: Recruiting reporters, especially in Oklahoma, are often less than professional and try to influence the recruiting themselves to help out their team.
#4: Family members often have no idea what's going on, or try to push their own agenda.
#5: Even when you have a good reporter, who knows what the source actually knows or doesn't know.
I love recruiting news, but calling out a recruit on the internet is crap.
