As our readers know, I'm a big fan of Rivals.com, specifically, goldandblack...but competition is always a good thing and Scout is trying to make a game of it.
Honestly, Rivals has been kicking Scout's arse for years, when it comes to Purdue info...but they now have some talent dedicating their time to our Boilers. Plus, their forums don't have all of the negativity that's become rampant on KHC and the free boards at Gold and Black.
I'd highly suggest you give them a look...while they're not at the level of Neubert, Karpick & Co., they are another perspective...and you might see/hear something from them that you haven't heard any place else...Give 'em a look, if you get the chance.

One glance at the main page of Boiler Sports Report is enough. The first thing I see is a story entitled, "Is Higgs A Boilermaker?" Yes he is. GBI broke that story about a week ago. The second item I see is a story entitled, "Preview: Duke vs Purdue." Yikes. Not to mention the site itself is more of a cluster fuck of information than even ESPN.com.
It's another perspective...and they are working at getting better. Their layout is pretty horrible and their graphics remind me of what the internet was like about 10 years ago...But, they are working to make it better, and the people they have on the site are open to suggestions.
Im lost, ATM is a 4 star on rivals but a 2 star on scout. How can there be that much of a difference?
