[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 158474, member: 2175"] I think people would be surprised at how ineffective a lot of "negative" recruiting is to 18-year-olds. Stuff like UNC being threatened with stiff NCAA penalties can hurt, because recruits have read and know about that situation. But the coach of X is mean? X is unfair? X will take your scholarship? Even kids for the most part see through that and besides, it is easy to get character references because most of these prospects know somebody or know somebody who knows somebody close to the program. It ain't called social media for nothing. I have to think it would take an exceptionally polished recruiter to pull that off without coming across as sleazy and underhanded. The kind of guy your parents don't want you around. [/QUOTE]
