[QUOTE="JacketFromUGA, post: 210139, member: 2101"] The whole "identifying kids earlier" motif has some merit but what gets lost in a lot of these discussions is the unpredictability of Teenagers. Quite frankly it is not an easy variable to predict. You have recruits like Jalen Camp who might not even be playing football in the "earlier" stage everyone is talking about. Then you have kids like Ajani Kerr who don't develop into a D1 recruit until their senior season. How do you identify those earlier? Not to mention the academic side of it. I teach underclassmen in HS so take it from me. Kids that look like they have the "Tech stuff" in the academics side the first two years of HS can certainly show they are not up to snuff in the upperclassmen years. It's just a fact of human development. There is no magic fix button for any school's recruiting. Every school is different and is perceived differently by different areas and even different families in those areas. It's not a science so trying to dissect it out to be one won't lead to favorable results. [/QUOTE]
