Crystal Ball Misses

[BoukofJames]

I noticed over the last week or so, PG Carter Whitt picked up at least half a dozen Crystal Ball forecasts for Nebraska. Today, he committed to Wake Forest.

I’m back to following BB recruiting closely after about a 10-year hiatus. I was wondering if anyone recalls any major Crystal Ball “upsets” for high-profile guys over the last decade?

I had a crystal ball for that mountain man finishing the Big Tex Challenge last night, but that mound of failure fell on his face right at the finish line. That was pretty shocking.

Makur Maker to Howard was a major surprise too, especially for someone with a high possibility to go straight to pro.

Literally take with a grain of salt... recruiting is not a science and things change. Or a cousin tells a reporter one thing and it is wrong or old

The crystal ball ’experts’ need to follow the money.
