I don't know ANYTHING about the kid but this would be a red flag for me . . . I know that's not fair but when you have choices (meaning other recruits), this would weigh into mind if i'm a head coach recruiting him. Wouldn't be the end all be all but it would be something I thought about.

The thing is though, that 99% of the kids are fine once they get on campus, not many cause problems. Also, depending on which side we are on, we criticize a parent for not being involved and offering guidance or we criticize the parents for not letting the recruit decide for themselves.

As long as mom has her child's best interests in mind, I have no problem with what she has done. Obviously it would have been better if it wasn't public, but that will blow over when he is on someone's campus.

Not a shot at all at you in any way, just in case you think it is. Just an observation.

Didn't think that you were taking a shot at me at all and I can't understand both sides. I wouldn't pass on the kid however I would be a little more cautious.

I guess people have different perspectives. It's awesome that his mom did that. Admitting a mistake is hard enough. Doing it in public is even harder. I make mistakes with mine all the time. It's all about fixing the mistakes that you made.

Yep, terrible, why would you ever even consider tweeting that? I know.

The only positive I can see from her doing this is that she will be taking the heat for Jaykwon's rapid de-commitment...Who knows, maybe this is just a smoke screen because he thought he wanted to go to MSU, and then decided he made the wrong decision, and she is taking the bullet for him so his reputation remains untarnished.

I think that is it...

And good for her if that is the case

No big deal . She's not the only parent who wanted their child to go to a certain college. Seems as though she wanted someone who would take care of her baby. She was sold on the coaches and academic help. The kid went along with what his mom felt.
I've been there, we've all agreed with our parents to please them. He told her as much after the fact. Good parenting of her to realize such.
