PGStaff-
Since most of my colleagues are going off in a thousand different directions, let me get back to your original point:

1- I think your order is a bit off. Can't imagine that local fans have more credibility than coaches - unless you are talking about some really garbage programs. Other than that, you are exactly right...parents are never trusted as sources by any coaches that I know (of their OWN kids, I mean), and recruiting services are a waste of money, as most college coaches distribute that "bought advertising" in the circular file pretty quickly.

2- I think #2 is more dangerous long-term, because he's crying wolf and is endangering the chances of other kids down the road.
