A Football Scout Who Does His Prep Work

SAN ANTONIO -- Bob Lichtenfels paced behind the end zone in the Alamodome, a wad of fine-cut chewing tobacco tucked in his lower lip. Five hundred high school football players auditioned on the field in front of him, and Lichtenfels hoped to assess many of them during the next two hours. He pulled a six-page roster from his back pocket. "Time to go to work," he said.

I don't think so, that guy is/was a PSU fan...Bob is more of a Pitt insider than PSU...

I can't help but think that some time in the near future the NCAA will get involved with these guys.
Limit them.
Regulate them some how.

honestly i take nearly everyones stuff with a grain of salt. if these guys were such great talent evaluators wouldnt someone have already signed them to their college/nfl staff?
though ive never paid a cent for recruiting stuff, gp writes probably the best stuff of all the guys in the business.

I agree they would be recruiting for college or the NFL, how can any man say how good a player is or going to be in 30 Min,, alot of people look good in shorts, but get them in game, Bob and Ohio High have a kid rated high on there board, that i know was not the top five best on his highschool team. and only had about 30 tackels all year....It's about who they like...not about football talent, most of the scouts have not seen a kid play, so how can they rate them, give me a break...
