This is a perfect example of how recruiting can never be an exact science. Beano Cook and his stupid pronouncements that Powlus would win 2 Heismans and was ready to play on Sundays before he had even taken 1 college snap shows how stupid the media can be too.

This is why I don't much care to follow recruiting. There's so much that can happen with an 18-year old kid that either helps or... otherwise. Sure, there are a few sure bets (AD comes to mind) but most of the time it's about what's in the kid's head and heart. And it's not so easy to measure that.
