In 1987, The Boston Globe wrote: "In three short years, Super Prep has become an essential tool for recruiting coordinators nationwide."[5] The San Diego Union-Tribune called it "one of the more respected services," and the Los Angeles Times called it "usually a reliable source".[6][7]
SuperPrep was folded into TheInsiders.com, another recruiting site, in 2003.[8] The final SuperPrep print magazine was published in 2012.[9]
