Don't denounce the guys at rivals. Russ Blake is the best in the business. Everyone knows and loves him. No one works harder or covers more events. High School, juco, prep school and AAU. Russ is extremely underpaid and some Division I program ought to hire him for his recruiting expertise. Brian Towney is young but, does an excellent job.
He covers Long Island, NYC, Westchester County and New Jersey extensively. Russ Blake ought to start his own publication like what Tom Konchalski does. Plus, if Russ prostituted himself in the mannner Konchalski does taking cash to get kids scholarships he would make a fortune. Nobody in scouting is more diligent than Russ Blake. Hey, why doesn't Jay Gomes get any pub on this website. He is another one of rivals great scouts.

You obviously don't know Tom Konchalski who is one of the nicest people in the world. He rates kid's and provides a service. Russ Blake is a great guy but he's no Tom Konchalski. Tom is not an AAU guy, he doesn't pawn kid's! He rates them. Get your facts straight!

Tom is one of the classiest people on the scene. And while he does provide a service, he also gets paid well for what he does. It's a job. I'm not trying to take the luster off what he does, but it is a job.
Russ Blake is not a pawn for AAU coaches. He is not affiliated with any AAU program. He calls them as he seems them, and is a pretty discrimating judge of talent.

Having known Tom for a "VERY" long time I beleive him to an extremely good judge of talent and a very good person. Linking his name to money grabbing is an insult he provides a service which he is paid for and he does it the proper way.

I wasn't implying that he was "money-grabbing", so don't put words in my mouth. I, too, know him quite well, and know that he is indeed a very good and decent person who tries to help people. But while it is a service, it is a job as well. Everyone has to make a living.
I don't know what your point is. Basically I am saying the exact same thing that you are.

Your Tom Konchalski comment is way out of line.
