Can you imagine how frustrating this would be for a recruiter, especially of the kids was favoring your school?

Just weird comments for parents to make.
“As far as myself, I think he should leave town. I think he should leave the state because he has some friends who aren’t athletes,” [Malik's father] Greg said. “I don’t want them to be a distraction. If he stays close to home, they’re capable of driving up and distracting him. I want him to establish himself on his own.”
“From when we talked Friday he’s coming around because he knows how adamant we are about him not attending Michigan State,” the elder McDowell said. “I don’t have anything bad to say against Michigan State but I don’t think they’re the school for my son. I think the coaches are cool and they’re establishing a good program, but this is my son and I choose to not want him there. If he were to choose Michigan State I don’t know what I would do. It is what it is. I just want my son away from this environment and Michigan. I want him out of here.”

He was recruited by both OSU and ttun, but his mom wanted him to get as far away from here as possible. She felt that the kids he was hanging with wouldn't allow him to keep to stay focused on school, and that he would flunk out. True story (my mom worked with her).
Yes I'm aware of Fred Davis, the point is there are going to be bad people anywhere, especially a place like Florida State.

This is true. I was just pointing out that sometimes a parent does not want their kid to stay close to home, that's all.

Actually a true statement. I always chuckle when parents want their kid to move away or more to another school. Like those same "bad" influences aren't going to be around other places? They are everywhere. Its about the kid making smart choices on where/who to hang with. Thats the bottom line.

Yep. Best of luck to him. Sounds like the Buckeyes might steal one from Sparty in Darius Slade who won't be signing today and still plans to visit OSU.
