I just recently got a DT subscription and ill compare it to my DSA (Rivals) one. The ONLY thing that DT does better, and I will admit it is a lot better is they are much quicker with getting follow ups with recruits. Always a day or two ahead of DSA. But there are many cons, this Kelley thing is a great example. They are unprofessional, they hype up little stories use way to many bs "hooks". Although you cant really blame them, they are very new. DSA is class all the way, the info from AJ and Brandon is top notch. They tell it like it is and have GREAT sources. They probably fall on the pessimistic side which I appreciate. Plus they always wait for conformation on things and never release something until they know its true. AJ will RARELY float a rumor out there that doesnt come true eventually.

Would someone fill me in on the differences between DSA and DT...I am a subscriber to DT because I've always thought that Mops was the best source for everything Duck related, am I wrong? How much does DSA cost? Is there information usually in depth and how often is it posted? I would be willing to switch if the cost and info is right...Jhop I agree has kind of used a lot of us on here to make money...it is what it is...Please someone tell me which site is overall better and which sources/info is more accurate...I would appreciate feedback from the moderators here especially...but anyone can chime in, thanks!

IMO, neither are worth the 10$ a month

ESPN insider is only 3$ a month and has ridiculously more content than those sites can provide.

Between there and this site is more than adequate for me.

Boom, I'm considering that idea but I've noticed that in the past ESPN was slower than others at getting new/hot info up...is that still the case? I am one of those who wants to know ASAP...which is why I follow MOPS and have for along time...yes there is info is complex but does it update fast?

It seems to me that if you want to know ASAP, DT would probably be the place to go. Mops and Jhop really get the info out pretty quickly. The down side to getting your info ASAP, is that you end up getting burned a few times. If you want to wait a bit longer but get consistently reliable info, then you should consider ESPN or Rivals. If you want to wait even longer and still get rumors and reliable info, just stick to this board.

If you want to know "ASAP" then a recruiting site is the way together.

Once someone finds out a kid commits the info usually gets to ESPN and this site within 24 hours.

that 18 year old kids were jerking his chain. I prefer this board without JHOP although
I miss MOPS at times. At least IMHO he tried to give accurate up to date info.
mops was the man. JHOP was well......

This. I used to have both DSA and ESPN insider at one point but once I discovered this board, I canceled my subscriptions to both. Then again, I'm more patient than a lot of people and am one who doesn't like to get my hopes up about something that isn't a sure thing, so it works out for me :lol:

I'm sticking with DT now that Brandon has been added...I used DSA one day and was already bored of it...I don't mind paying 8 dollars for the quickest up to date info...with three of the top sources in Matt, Justin, and Brandon...my decision is finalized! I also added ESPN insider as well...boy do I love recruiting!
