There must be some exceptions to this for credentialled journalists, 
most sportswriters are also alums of some college, even the jocks.

And this has to apply to web journalists, too.  Jeremy Crabtree, for 
example, is an alum of Kansas State, yet I'm pretty sure he's talked to 
HS players considering going there.

That doesn't change NU's regrettable attitude towards the web, though.
