Sources for Research Paper

Two Possible Sources:
-http://books.google.com/books?id=ElqmoBZLHyUC&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false

This is a book titled Reclaiming the Game which analyzes many of the same issues with NCAA recruiting that I plan to address. The book is well-organized and cites all of its sources, leading me to believe this is both a relevent and scholarly source to use for my paper.

-http://www.ajc.com/highschool/content/sports/highschool/stories/2009/01/23/middle_school_recruiting.html

This is an article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution article breaking down some of the effects of college coaches contacting middle school athletes too early in their lives. I liked this article because it analyzed both sides of the argument in regard to college recruiting and because it seemed scholarly.

Two Sources I Would Not Use:
-http://www.xposuresports.com/NCAA_Recruiting.html

This entire article was unsupported by any documentation of where the information came from. The name of the site also takes away from its credibility.

-http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/story/14659868/parents-should-be-solution-not-problem-in-scummy-recruiting

While this article from CBS is informative, it is ridiculously biased and does not put forth much factual information.

Through searching online about my reaearch paper topic, I learned that not all sources are created equal. Some that appear to be scholarly are in fact biased and have little to no factual backing to what they say. I also learned that the using the web takes much more time than it would seem to find articles that are relevent to the research that I plan on doing.
