Whether there is a correlation between a recruits obsession with social media and generating personal recruiting notoriety and future performance once in college?
It seems to me, at least anecdotally, that the recruit that starts with their top 20 (“look at all the schools that have offered me”), lead-on every program they visit by posting pics of themselves in the uniform of every school they visit, weed out their potential choice to TEN schools, and drag out there commitment til the bitter end, ultimately are more likely to underperform, switch schools, or be a locker room problem.
They are more likely to make their final choice based on NIL then relationships.
I would pass on all these guys no matter how highly ranked.
And before you jump in and say ALL the four and five star guys handle their recruiting this way just know that’s total BS. Plenty of them visit a few schools, get a feel for possible programs and make a choice without all the above.
