Which is more reliable?  I just got an email from a recruit saying I'm #1 with him and if he could sign today he would blah blah blah.  But then I look at the future stars "word on the street" and it says he is struggling between me and another school.

Was the "email from a recruit" a scholarship email?

Those are the only ones that contain reliable information regarding a recruit's intentions.

Was the scholarship email at 5:00 cycle? FSS only updates at 2PM and 2 AM so it could have said he was struggling at 2PM then changed based on the effort you gave  at the 5 PM cycle

Yeah it was at 5.  I didn't know that about FSS, makes sense.  Thanks.

The scholarship email is the only thing that matters. Ever.

So the last email I got from him was at 5 yesterday saying "You're my top choice right now. If I could sign today, I would! Thanks again for believing in me."  But the FSS word on the street still says he is struggling between me and another school.  I should put faith in the email since he hasn't given me any updates besides that one?

Any time there is a change in the lead you will get a scholarship email. So if you got an email at 2pm indicating you were in the lead, then got one of the mysterious emails that people (somehow) can't figure out the meaning, it means you are now behind.
