Rivals or Scout??

Which is better?? I am looking to subscribe to one of them just don't know which one. Any preferences?

I don't subscribe to either one, so what I have to say is just my opininon. Both of them do a good job. Both of them make mistakes. There are going to be some "can't miss" prospects who flop in college, and there are going to be some "projects" who will not only shine in college, but go on to the NBA. For example, Marvin Stone was called, "the best player in the last 15 years" by one guru. Yet, he was never a standout in college, and went undrafted. On the other end of the spectrum, Nazr Mohammed wasn't even in the top 500 seniors, coming out of high school. Yet, he started on our 1998 NCAA championship team, and left early for the NBA, getting drafted in the first round.
Also, I have heard that most (all?) recruiting services have two sets of information. One that they sell to fans, and one, more detailed and more expensive, that they only sell to coaches.

I have subscribed to both in the past, and to be honest I personally don't think it's worth the money. There is rarely anything on there that you can't find for free somewhere on the internet. Unless you are one of those people that want to be the first to know a certain rumor or certain info I think it is a rip off. If I had to pick between the two however, I would say scout is better. They both have pretty much the same info at the same time though.
