The predictions on Swanigan are so varied and so far apart. Brian seems to think we are still a clear front runner while the MSU bloggers seem to give us a 0% chance. The Cal girl thinks they are in it and gaining traction.
I'm guessing this is what you get in the absense of any recent information from the actual recruit and his family. People are so thirsty for any little smidgeon of news that it just gets made up.
I remember at Cub scouts we would line up about 20 of the little guys and tell the first kid "A blue lion only eats Twinkees on Monday" Then each kid walks to the next boy and tells him the same. The last boy announces what he heard. Generally you get something like "The best yard has a soccer goal" Things are never relayed correctly
On Rivals I suspect hopes and wishes turn to fact, rumors get twisted and even those with the real facts start to doubt their own info.
