Could u post the story out here....I dont have the subsctription But other sources report he is a top prospect and interested in ND

There are reasons one doesn't post an article from a pay site 'out here.' First, for better or worse, that is somebody else's livliehood. Second, I think there are copyright issues precisely because it is a pay article.

But most importantly, those recruiting articles are fluff. They follow this formula:

1.) "Is BLANK interested in BLANK..."
2.) Phone conversation with a quote
3.) 'Yes' or 'No' answer followed by an 'expert' interpretation

In the end, he either is or he isn't, and usually the kids don't know themeselves until they verbal somewhere.

To me, the real perks of the paysights are the accompanying print magazine(s) and the ability to watch the videos.

What RIP said is 100%.

What one can do, however, is read the article and then provide a synopsis. You are also allowed to use quotes supporting your own work as documentation, like you would on a term paper.
