Check out my post over at Fistful of Talent for my roadmap on when it makes sense to opt for the jock among final candidates assuming other things are relatively equal.

Hint - it all comes down to a mixture of elements - what level they played out (D1, D2 or D3), whether they were a star or benchwarmer and meeting a relatively healthy GPA (which might be lower than you would expect) during their time at the school in question.

Check out the full post here, it's probably not exactly what you would expect from me...
