    Ektard says it looks like OVs will be allowed after all so the coaches are now scrambling to get them scheduled for June. Geez, who saw this coming?

    The thing that so many of you seem to forget is things change all the time. What's true today, can change quickly. Everybody seems to want up to the minute definitive answers. Recruiting doesn't always work like that. And you've all seen it numerous times.

    This is going to be another crazy year in recruiting. Kids who are committed to schools without visiting may very well decide they want to reopen the recruitment and take visits. I think we'll see a lot of that.

    Isn't that the point of selling yourselves as insiders with exclusive access and charging a monthly fee for that advertised service?

    I'll never not be entertained reading Kim's instinctual need to be a condescending know-it-all to every legitimate question from a subscriber. You can practically feel the small-man ego oozing out of every word. Any actual reporter who isn't insecure would simply answer the question, maybe even throw in a customary "that's a good Q", even if it isn't, since he's allegedly trying to make money.

    It’s the same Kim shtick that has been going on for years. I saw awhile back he told posters to look forward regarding Hopkins and UW basketball. Criticizing Hop and wanting him fired so UW has a chance to be good again means you are a miserable person.

    Update 4-19:

    Myles Pollard: Visiting Auburn in June.
    Ben Morrison: Visiting Notre Dame in June.

    Do we have anyone on our staff setting up visits? Our top targets are all going to be committed by the time we start scheduling.

    The fact that Kim, Fetters, Ruth, and Ecklund make up the UW insiders fansites is fucking amazing to me.

    Just horrendous.

    It's been this way for over 20 years.

    And for a brief tim we had Basnight too!
