[QUOTE="daBuzz, post: 116210, member: 56"] All of these guys (Ken, Kelly Q, Eric (I'm assuming because I don't happen to know Eric's source(s) like I do with the former 2) have "connections" with players and/or coaches. It really isn't all that difficult to find out when news is breaking or about to break if you have such sources. Sometimes, certain members of the staff (I won't say the title but it rhymes with roaches) will even let certain information out on purpose. Specifically with regards to recruiting, this can be really really useful because these "staff members" cannot comment on recruits until after they sign their LOI. However, this info is sometimes (often actually) asked to be kept quiet until a certain date or until a certain event happens. If those members of the media comply, they tend to get more info. If they don't, they will find that the well of information will dry up rather quickly. Ken broke that agreement when he published the information on JHD before they wanted it released. And it appears this time that he got his information from a player...which is kind of a double no/no. In that situation, the common courtesy thing is for Ken to tell the coaches that he has heard certain information and plans to print it. Uhh, nope...Ken didn't do that either, from what I understand.
