Do Michigan Recruiting Gurus Provide "Slanted" Coverage?

Now, if you are going to say that Beaver over at GBW slant the crap out of their stuff, I wouldn't disagree. Having said that, the guys over at the Michigan Rivals site do a stand-up job IMO. I didn't see much slant in that article. It's just the same stuff you'd see from ANY article done by ANY Rivals site. Including tOSU's own Rivals site, BSB. Beaver's crew over at GBW- that's an entire different story. They make every article sound like the kid is going to committ to Michigan tommorow, the guys man crush on Ryan Mallett is bordering on creepy, and their "insiders" are well quite frankly not that privy to inside information other than Beaver himself. That Turel guy for instance is the master of spin. Saine picked tOSU over Michigan. Turel- "oh they never really even offered him" blah blah blah. He also said "Herron is a lock to Michigan if he gets offered"- Herron picked tOSU. Now he's saying he hopes Taurian Washington doesn't pick Michigan because he's not any good and that Dionte Allen is just an average player.

LOL. Funny he says Dionte is just an average player considering not even a year ago he was saying Dionte Allen was a superstar in the making, #1 overall player in the state, and even better than RoJo. Now RoJo is the top guy in the state in most peoples eyes and he's demanding people give him credit for "discovering" RoJo and he's saying RoJo is wayyy better than Dionte.

Beg to differ... Helmholdt is one of the worst...

Now back to Taurian...

That article about Washington and Hemingway wasn't even done by Helmholdt. I think Helmholdt isn't any different from any of the other Rivals writers. He's not that bad, and in some of his articles has even said such and such a kid is probably going to another school.

Don't even act like Kurelic doesn't slant some of his stuff. Every Rivals writer does. It's called having to please their subscribers and having to gain new subscribers. That is just how the recruiting services go.

But anyways, back to Taurian. Looks like it's Michigan or tOSU for him. Hope he goes blue, but if he decides on the Buckeyes so be it. I'll still wish him the best of luck in every game in his career except 4.
