Thing about this…this is what sport media has turned into. It used to be telling the players stories, giving the highlights, now it’s guys who disrespect for attention
And this is the same mindset that sits in many owners boxes, coaches offices and front offices around the NFL
Proud of my boys !
3 absolute GUYS. Get in before it’s too late 👀
Unreal game day environment at Syracuse! Appreciate the hospitality from @FranBrownCuse and the entire staff. 🍊🔒

I think it’s hard to explain why this is actually worse than typical “character issues” in the eyes of colleges
But probably boils down to the fact that you can discipline a kid when he’s being stupid, but you can’t do anything about his dad being loud and obnoxious
Did not expect this to blow up overnight lol
For those of you saying schools will look past this-no they will not. This is detrimental to a program. I’m speaking directly from conversations I have had with people in recruiting. His dad should stop-and maybe this can be forgotten
Willing to say what nobody in recruiting will
This kid could be the #1 prospect in his class, and no school is gonna take him with this social media stuff. Every school in America is aware of it. And thinks its a joke. Complete disservice to an innocent kid who wants to play

This guy is a huge tool.
99.9% of people will never understand how difficult it is to work as a scout in the NFL. Let alone the GM.
It’s 24 hour days, 7 days a week, 365, without a family. Eating, sleeping, showering at the facility. It is a job 99% of people cannot do.

This happens way more than you’d think…
I don’t understand the problem with young men celebrating big plays. Playing high school football football-and playing well-can earn you millions! Let them have some fun.
Just gross from the official.
I’ve received a statement from a MSHSAA member after this incident (video below) during Thursday night’s matchup between Glendale and Kickapoo.
“We were made aware of the situation, and the official in question has been suspended indefinitely.”

Parents, why do you post under players accounts pretending to be them? It's obvious. Why do people post "fake" offers? They can easily be verified. It makes you look foolish. When you create a post, why do you tag so many individuals that you have never had any contact with?
Football evaluation content sucks so bad lol
Go watch Brett Kollman if you’re seriously interested in learning about the game

How tall is he ?
How much he weigh ?
What’s his 40/100?
What’s his broad jump?
Can he move ?
What’s his stats ?
Does he have any offers ?
Never have i ever had a coach ask for a top rivals link or ranking !
That’s just good for the media!
A 2029 offer isn’t commitable. Lol. Comparing it to a $500,000 Tulane scholarship is asinine
We'll never have enough scouts to watch 1M high school football players a year. Rivals Recruits gives anyone a real shot at being seen.
Ex: 2029 QB Colton Dabkowski bought an evaluation. Rivals scout @CodyBellaire spent hours on his film and talking with his coaches, then shared the eval with college staffs.
A few days later Tulane offered.
Est. Tulane scholarship: ~$390K over 4 years
Rivals evaluation: $499
We want every recruiting staff, from FBS to D-III, to find more talent, and every athlete who's earned it to get found. No one should go unseen.

Everyone in the recruiting industry knows that college football staffs do not care about ratings from these sites because they have their own recruiting staffs that do it even better.
Taking advantage of young adults to make money is crazy work knowing that it only affects those that have the funds to do so.
The only time I have had a coach tell me he has looked at a recruiting site was when the class was already signed and they were trying to get the number one class in the g6 so they could post it on social media.
To recruits, dont think that getting a rating will get you more interest, these sites are primarily for fans. Having 2 stars vs having none only means you have been evaluated by their staff. If you truly want to get evaluated by a coaching staff, use the same 500$ to go more camps.

Parents should not pay for this service.
If your kid is good enough, he/she will be found. True talent never goes undiscovered.

I’m sure I will lose old friends over this post, but I feel I have to say it. On3 Sports is now charging families $499 a year to get a player evaluation, recruiting profile and other supposed benefits through Rivals.
Let me be blunt: Don’t waste your money.
I was one of the original publishers on the Rivals network. I worked inside that system, evaluated players and helped athletes earn legitimate exposure. I know how the recruiting game works and I know all the games these companies play.
No family should have to pay $499 to have someone “evaluate” their son. That is complete bullshit. A paid profile does not make a player a prospect, and paying for an evaluation does not create scholarship offers.
There are far better ways to get legitimate exposure: verified film, accurate measurables, direct communication with college coaches, targeted camps and an honest evaluation from someone who actually understands personnel.
Spend your money helping your son become a better football player—not purchasing the illusion that exposure comes with a $499 price tag.#footballrecruiting #schsl

Not a single college coach/recruiting gives a damn about your ranking lol
We’ve had kids ranked wildly different than their “rankings.” Have also had kids get offers with no rankings on any sites. Does not matter in the slightest
LFG.
Blessed and honored to receive my FIRST Division 1 offer from Syracuse University!
Huge thank you to @FranBrownCuse and the entire Syracuse staff and to my coaches at @RBC_FTBALL for pushing me every day.
