It's the buzz of all plugged-in Hurricanes fans (I've heard about it from two friends already), but yesterday Manny Navarro set the record straight on recruiting and how it's handled by recruits, schools, fans and even the media. Long story short? We all need to stop caring so much:

But the truth is we've made this story much more than it needs to be. We've turned it into a yearlong odyssey. Blue-chip reporters from top-notch newspapers like the New York Times, magazines like Sports Illustrated and TV and radio stations have covered Bryce Brown nearly as much as the Alex Rodriguez steroid scandal. They've done it all because they want to be the first to tell you whether or not Bryce Brown's letter of intent was pulled by UM, or, if he may or may not make an official or unofficial visit to watch the Canes practice next week.

Do yourself a favor and leave this page. Read the entire post.

The Miami Hurricane's Editorial Board did tackle this topic last year, but Navarro really covers everything. Give it a look.
