Message: [QUOTE="Puppy Love, post: 4308963, member: 8101"] Someone needs to tell the HDI folks that correlation does not imply causality. While saying that half of the to ten used their service is a nice advertising line, it doesn’t mean much. The top 10 schools on that list are all larger schools with recruiting resource dollars that can afford to use HDI. Further, they are all schools in need of improved players and attractive enough to get them, Additionally, 10 schools is such a small sample that the the margin of error is huge. If they said that half of the top 100 used them, that would be more interesting, but HDI doesn’t have that many schools. All of the top players would be well known to all of the coaches, as well, so it is unlikely that HDI’s service made the players more attractive to perspective schools or more likely to sign. [/QUOTE]
