Anybody have new info on Megan Walker and her impending decision?
I get that people take an interest in top recruits, but something about these types of threads feels creepy and stalkerish to me. We're talking about 16- and 17-year-old kids. She'll decide to go wherever she decides to go, when the time is right for her.

Yeah, you're right. Discussing where the nation's best women's college basketball recruit may go or when the nation's best women's college basketball recruit may make their decision on a women's college basketball forum is definitely "creepy and stalkerish".
It is not just you.It goes beyond mere "discussion," in my opinion, when about every five days someone feels compelled to start a whole new "What's the Latest on Megan?" thread and her every micromovement, both IRL and on social media, is surveilled and hyperanalyzed to the nth degree. But that's just me.
Ain't that the Damn Truth!!Because this time I felt the desire to share my feelings about these recruit-helicoptering threads.
It's apparent that some people agree with me and some don't, which I expected. Just because not everyone agrees with me doesn't mean I must remain silent. People with divergent opinions can share the same board.

Yes, let's have more peace and tolerance on this board. Sometimes the search for recruiting news can seem intrusive and overbearing. I don't believe that's true in this case. Again, peace.I certainly think you should feel free to speak your mind as long as you don't disparage those on this board who find it entertaining to do some non-intrusive recruiting detective work..... .....I always have found it interesting that some of those folks who find it "creepy" have no problem making critical remarks about an 18 year old player's physical ability and/or mental makeup once they attain a college scholarship....
Intrusiveness (unwelcomed contact) at 16-17 is creepy. The same intrusiveness at 18 is perhaps "less creepy" but still ...... Intrusiveness at any age is potentially still creepy. Commenting on a players physical ability and/or mental makeup is none of the above.I always have found it interesting that some of those folks who find it "creepy" have no problem making critical remarks about an 18 year old player's physical ability and/or mental makeup once they attain a college scholarship....
Who is this Megan Walker everyone keeps talking about?
The irony is that we're having this discussion over Walker who retweets compliment after compliment. She appears to enjoy the spotlight moreso than most recruits.
