I'm thinking, maybe erroneously, that the answer to that question might help determine whether the post means anything, or nothing at all. I wouldn't think Brooks would authorize the edit & posting of that particular photo unless it has some definite meaning .But I also don't think he would want Tipton to "steal his thunder".

I'd like to think Tipton would have enough respect for the kids/families and enough business sense not to proceed with something like that without authorization.

And if I were recruiting a friend to join me, I would keep it private to not look like I was pressuring him in front of the college basketball world via social media. But that's just me.

So hopefully it's Keion prepping to don stripes. But maybe I'm just blindly hopeful.

Tipton does edits for a lot of recruits. I don’t think they get permission for each one. He typically based in the kids top x amount of schools but has also done “package” deals before. It’s nothing more to hype up the kids. I don’t believe he gets paid for any of that work.

It seems to me that Tipton wouldn’t go around posting stuff like this without at least contacting the recruits involved. I would think that if word got out that Tipton was going rogue with these posts they might lose business from future recruits and would also be begging for another company to come in and fill the vacuum created. But I’m no businessman.

You might not be, but all it takes is logic and honesty. I think you’re spot on here.

He’s had some other “package deal” edits where one of the two or three players in the image was no longer considering the school the others had committed to. He’s basically a hype man through images and I doubt the kids hate seeing “the love.” I’m not sure if he gets permission from all players involved for every image he creates.
