College football recruiting has been an ever changing landscape since the internet became widely used and information has become so easily accessible. There are many college football and college basketball recruiting sites like ESPN, Rivals, and Scout, but there are bound to be new upcoming recruiting sites that can hopefully do things just a little bit better. ESPN, Yahoo owned Rivals, and Fox owned Scout have not been able to improve upon their age old design. College recruiting is starting to expand more and more and with that expansion a new face is needed. Old college sports websites just won't just it anymore. A new network that has up-to-date information 24/7 would be ideal. Too often is information outdated, or just plan wrong.
The whole 24 hours a day 7 days a week thing is not about how often a website would be up, (obviously a website is up all the time) it is more about how much content would always be available. A site that included all the best local content and even brought in current content providers, like college sports forums, up to date videos, and even social networking sites, would utterly dominate the college football and college basketball recruiting market.
A lot could be said about the current coverage available right now as well. The entire nation deserves to be covered, not just the conferences that your network has contracts with (ESPN). The north and the west seemed to be ignored, while the south and east are covered constantly. The bigger market is in the east, but this leads to skewed rankings as well as poor coverage in some areas of the country. There should not be 3 different sites each saying a potential recruit has totally different heights, weights, speeds, or college offers.
It should also not take hours or even days to update when a recruit has given a verbal commitment or signed a Letter of Intent. A new recruiting website needs to be built from the ground up and implement the top technological advancements available. A lot of the pitfalls the current websites have like poor quality comment, poor quality message boards, terrible user interfaces, or even poor quality communities is something that could easily be fixed if the time was put into doing so. It is finally time to replaces these old sub standard college recruiting sites trying to be a jack of all trades with ONE site who has one focus; college recruiting.
