For cryin' out loud, the pay sites only charge about .30 a day to belong. Why the sour grapes? Even if it's just more of the same, at least its MORE! To me it's an absolute bargain.
You guys all pat yourselves on the back for saving .30 a day - missing out on interviews, video, chat (which is entertaining if not always accurate), etc. - then go grab a $3 cup of coffee and drive around for about .25 per mile.
I guess I'm glad to say (chest now pumped up) that I am a member of 2 pay sites, read chat 4 quacks, enjoy all of them, and by God, I make enough that I can afford the 60 cents a day it costs me....
What good info did paysite members have?

IMO, ESPN insider is the best value out there. They have been expanding there recruiting coverage every year and they have the most detailed scouting reports on the players. Plus you get all of there other content for about a third of the price of educk.

Would be interesting to see how much info you all got here if the pay sites went away.

Re: What good info did paysite members have?
Well those pay sites are tweeting information, and honestly, a lot of the info we got was from ESPN. I think the point being made here is that pay sites, near signing day, don't really hold an edge over anyone. All the main information released is done publicly mostly by ESPN. Personally, I believe pay sites are still good value during the off season because they usually get out information first, whereas ESPN (not DT) doesn't really care about recruiting as much until signing day or some big all american game.Electric Football wrote:Would be interesting to see how much info you all got here if the pay sites went away.

Re: What good info did paysite members have?
Really, the OP has a problem with people who use pay sites? Who cares if someone wants to pay to get there info early. Most the people on the paysites new King was a lost cause and because of that they knew that McCain was gone too. We learned that the King offer was pulled because he was playing games with the staff, and the staff decided to move on rather than play his stupid little games. Yeah, in the end everyone got the same info., but compared to the paysite this board was dead.
I'm not gonna argue one way or the other, both pay and nonpaysites have their benefits. I'm sorry if you you can't pay for, or don't want to for info, but really it just seems like you're trying to pick a fight where there really is no point in doing so.

It's a waste of time and money...with a little patience you get exactly the same infor here in pretty short order after they do.
