Recruiting Services

FungoHighly Regarded and Beloved Old Timer

I had a conversation about recruiting services the other day where something was said that is just starting to sink in. I was told that some coaches automatically ignore a player that is endorsed by a recruiting service and throw away the recommendation. I have had coaches tell me this before but I just assumed these were unqualified players and they should be “chunked”. But....What if the player was a legitimate recruit and this happens? Could this player/recruiting service relationship actually hurt the legitimate player? I’m reminded of those that say the Boras/Client relationship has hurt a player's draft status,???? Any thoughts?
