    I'm back to hating recruiting again. Speculating on anything before someone commit is dumb anyway. I'm sure this same thing will happen with foster sarrell in a month

    This thread is example 1,000,001 why TBS is creepy and weird. It's one thing to watch some highlights. It's another to follow their tweets and get caught up in this bullshit.
    And recruiting is the life blood of a program ...

    How much one embraces their inner stalker is one thing ... but the pursuit of a player like this is equivalent to having a Top 5-10 pick in the NFL Draft ... Kids like this really matter

    I believe the original point was that it is somewhat silly for grown men to be stalking 18 year olds on twitter and experiencing mood swings as they hang on every word that said 18 year old posts, it was not a questioning of whether this particular recruit would be a good addition to the program or that recruiting is, in itself, meaningless

    I want DJ (ILTCHDJ) as much as anybody, but he's not close to the equivalent of a top 10 pick. His average ranking between the 4 major TBS sites is 99.5. Barely a top 100 guy is equivalent of a low second rounder if you just include P5 schools or a low first rounder if you include all FBS. Nothing close to top 10 either way.

    Foster the people is a top 5 pick though.

    Agree. Which is why talking about commits and signing day are important. Speculations on where some kid may go to college based on their twitter follows or some random fb post is creepy and silly tho
