takes down a UConn Commit from our Commitment List.

And, how slooooooww they are to put one up after multiple media outlets announce one. FAST ... its within minutes. Who is in charge of that? I am blaming Brian Koonz - again.

It's a function of the content management system.

When the PA kid committed to Michigan, whoever runs the Michigan site would have written an article about it - in loading the article into the network's backend, he'd be prompted to enter the commitment date, school, etc. That change carries to the whole network immediately.

Any school that doesn't have an active site is basically at the mercy of some underpaid regional editor to enter their commitments.

When we were with Rivals waaaaay back in the day, our commitments were usually from kids who weren't in the database so I'd have to enter them off of the shaky info I would get from calling their high school coaches...

For a IAA team, we sure had a lot of kids who ran 4.4's......

I just cancelled my subscription. Should have done it awhile ago. I actually think the new team covering UConn is trying very hard, but I can get the same information they post from Chip or from here, and sometimes from Silver. I'm tired of paying the same rate a fan at Bama pays and getting treated like a red-headed step kid. If there going to treat like us a 2 star, they should charge us 2 star rates.

Gioff23 I was thinking about doing the same, so I understand your position, but John Battle is trying hard, so I am going to stick in there another year since I have already paid up…

Rivals still uses our old logo. We've been rolling with the new dog of two years now. Show some respect.

Is Ulizio up to a 4 star yet?

Nope. As of today, he's still a 2-star / 5.3 RR prospect, even as a Michigan man...

It's a conspiracy! Random websites hate us!

Um, well, yeah. Oh and by the way it's not all that random if you chart it out.
