Will this change much? Put more stock into ESPN ratings? No more 93 for D Pete?

It's Jerry that we liked previously on Rivals, correct?  Where is he in the pecking order now?  :dunno:

meyer is good.  he's kind of aloof, doesn't interact as much as bossi.  they're good together.

B. Snow recently left Rivals.  He was a little bit of a floater for them, wonder if scout could be picking him up.

This really does kill scout as Telep was the one who made them what they are they today. 

I really would like ESPN to get more legit rankings, (don't even know who they had before Telep, no face for them like Rivals and Scout).

Alex Schwartz(Northstar)? He already does some updates for Scout team sites, he seems connected, he attends a lot of events, and has thoughtful analysis.

Only downside would be losing the Northstar blog  :frown:

That would certainly bring the "street" element to the world of recruiting updates, or at least attempt to.

The RecruitScoop kid Alex Kline, and he really is just a kid, is pretty darn solid. Probably too young to land a major gig like Scout but could do something down the line.

I get pissed when any of them act like they're above anyone else in the recruiting game.  They're all doing the same crap.
