Not much of a 'Crystal Ball' though. They're simply practicing cause and effect. I was hopeful the experts would have some real insight.

It's pretty clear, the concept looks better on paper than in reality. The experts just take guesses --- like we do.

Bingo they are not experts. The only reason they know maybe some times more info is because they stalk these recruits. Many recruits talk about how they constantly get calls, text, FB messages daily from these guys. These so called experts are no different than regular paparazzi. Anyone on here that wanted could do the same. If enough of your crystal ball predictions come true you get more subscriptions.

Someone in another thread suggested the analysts should be limited to 2-3 predictions per recruit. That would force the analysts to be a bit more judicious with their guesses.

That moment, when you realize recruiting analysts don't possess prophetic abilities, but just guess based on information they have gathered.

well per shannon terry they are making some changes to the crystal ball predictions. i believe they are only allowing a few changes and they are going to stop them from being updated right before an announcement and they are also going to keep track of them and give the analysts a ranking on how accurate they are. the joke is there are 2015 kids who just got offers and you have analysts putting in crystal ball predictions that far in advance..

Didn't want to quote ZDT but apparently the 24/7 staff reads VN.

Any recruiting service worth it's salt should be keeping its ear to the ground by monitoring this board. It would save many reporters, lots of time I'd imagine.

A+M is tearing it up in QB recruiting. They get Allen this year, top 250 QB Kenny Hill and four star QB Kohl Stewart (just drafted 4th overall in 2013 MLB draft) last year and Top 250 QB Matt Davis in 2012, in addition to Manziel in 2011

A&M is going to be a force to be reckoned with in the SecW. Sumlin imo is a very good coach and well give bama fits this year as well. I have them as my sleeper pick to make a Nat'l Title run
