As you have probably already heard, Indiana Hoosiers basketball recruit Bud Mackey was arrested for carrying around some coke (not a big deal). Anyway, I found this humorous when a friend linked me over to Mackey’s Scout.com profile, where he told me to look at his “Areas for Improvement”:
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT
Decision Making
Perimeter Shot
Values Structure
Anyone who questions which site to look at, Scout.com or Rivals.com, every time they are looking up recruits should be clearly convinced after this that Scout is the winner. Especially considering Mackey’s past (from ESPN.com):
Scott County Schools Superintendent Dallas Blankenship told the Herald-Leader the district would review disciplinary action, adding that Mackey had never been in trouble before at the school.
How much time did these scouts spend with this kid to realize that he had some values problems even though he didn't ever get in trouble at school? A day, tops, right? Amazing. Keep up the great work, Scout.com.
