Anyone else think it's interesting/good thing that The only picture of in home visits that daylon macks family appeared in is the one with Texas Coaches?

I believe that is how Hamm handles it (hamdles it?)

I'm not trying to be argumentative, but at what point do we compare the experts' predictions with the results? It seems that the Crystal Balls are fluid and constantly changing. When are the predictions locked in?

FWIW, I'd like a baseline for grading the recruiting expects. Let's me know who to take seriously.

I definitely agree. Otherwise it's hard to measure. Need to have stats on who picked who correctly the first time

Higdon is saying Mack to Texas is still sounding positive after Murray.

I think KM never plays a down of college football. I wouldn't if I was him.

Duke - My thoughts exactly. That is the only reason I was never to wrapped up in him coming to Texas. His future is in baseball and if he's a 1st rounder as projected I think it will be hard for him to pass up the opportunity to sit in the bench for three years.

Well, Garland put up a list of predictions that I agreed on with the exception of one - Jamabo.  He said he didn't know where he was going and I said Texas.

At this point we both were right about Murray - which both of us have predicted from the get go.

I don't know how to copy and past his list - maybe someone here can do it or he can.

Did he change his Mack prediction?

It uses a point system.  The earlier you make the prediction the more points you get.  Predicitions aren't locked in until the recruit decides - but making a prediciton 5 minutes before it happens after 100 other analysts have predicted isn't going to get you any points.

Doing it over a year ago (like Garland has done for Boyd) will get you a metric crap-ton of points.

Garland Predictions:

Murray- A&M
Lodge- IDK
Mack- Texas
Boyd's- Texas
Hill- Texas
Warren- Texas
Jamabo- IDK
Reed- Texas
Locksley- FSU

That Wilson guy, the one who CBd Hill to LSU , has an interesting approach

 

[doc longhorn]

Did he change his Mack prediction?

No and neither am I - Texas

He put a idk on Lodge and I said Ole Miss - I think I beat him on this one.

Thanks - how did you do this?

Omenihu tweeted this morning that NSD is still going to be epic and that a bunch of reporters were DM'ing him trying to get info.  I know it's your job as a journalist/reporter, but at some point we have to back off and just let this run it's course.  As I said yesterday, some of these guys just want their space.
