Rule #1 Never text, email, Dm, etc these kids. That **** is suspect af. Unless you personally know these gits leave them be.
#2 This is a two way street and reality is harsh. Sometimes the player screws the program and sometimes the program screws the player. (Nobody does it more than Bama).
#3 I do try to watch these guys live and in game to get a sense of how good they might be, obviously this year is different. But I did have a friend, who played in the league and knows football, that went to the Northwestern vs Palmetto game. He raved about the talent on the field but onething that stuck out to him was Collins. He said that the kid was pretty good but that he was too big and sloppy. He said the kid had to be subbed out frequently and had no motor. It does suk that he has been committed so long but if he had a committable offer from UF he would have left.
