Not really worried about what someone else is making...never have
IF they think that's what the kid deserves for doing something...then great for the kid or anyone else getting BIG $$$
Any market has a way of correcting itself. The small % of HS players having successful college careers means that there is a lot of risk in doing this.
While, the risk of a "can't miss" prospect being a bust in college is lower, it does happen.
For example, can you imagine if someone had paid for our recent can't miss recruits over the years and paid Willie Williams, Kyle Wright, Robert Marve, Deleon Farr, Aldarius Johnson, Arthur Brown ....ALL top rated high school players millions of $$$....ALL total BUSTS in college here.
After paying one failure ...I think you'd be extremely reluctant to keep doing so. But there are suckers born every minute
