Generally speaking, the info they get is from the coaches and players directly but they also interview HS coaches. Ok. thanks. So there some school source to it and not just players putting out the stuff or internet speculation. I had kind of assumed but with so much guessing etc wasnt sure. I was thinking maybe the schools could not say anything to anyone but the recruits themselves - by rule. 1 Quote Link to comment

Since we are such an active fanbase on twitter, we’ve actually had fake “commitments” where recruits have either intentionally faked a commitment to Nebraska just to get followers, or perhaps misunderstood the scholarship offer wasn’t fully committable and claimed to be committed to us. These usually come out of left field and surprise everyone. The coaches are allowed to hint: “we just brought in some serious SPEED from the 305!” And that lets us know a commitment is legitimate. But they can’t outright say the player we landed until after signing day. There’s definitely some guessing that goes into it and recruiting is always fluid since HS players change their minds so damn much. And sometimes it’s just as simple as they’re being nice and don’t want to say anything bad about Nebraska. But generally speaking, we get a pretty good idea where we stand with recruits from the writers. Quote Link to comment

These days I am furloughed from work (virus in upstate NY btw) though so i have way too much time binge watching Netflix etc. lol. But hopefully Im back at work soon but ???? No matter what - I am always home in Lincoln! GBR! 1 Quote Link to comment

But the Bearcats had always remained near the top of his list, largely due to the relationship he had developed with defensive coordinator Marcus Freeman and new defensive backs coach Perry Eliano. Even head coach Luke Fickell has gone out of his way to make a connection. “I get FaceTime calls from Coach Freeman, if not every day then every other day. And then calls, texts and FaceTimes from Coach Eliano as well,” he said. “But what really surprised me is that some head coaches, they don’t like to be involved in the recruitment and everything, but Coach Fickell, he wants to be in there, talk to you, get to know you. That’s great.” 1 Quote Link to comment
