Recruiting funny so stay focus.

But tweeting them is where some people draw the line...not quite sure what the difference is to be honest.

You nailed it. Same folks pay money for those forums and beg for "tidbits" and "VIP" from people they pay to pester these kids by tracking them down and calling them constantly.

I don't pay anymore for recruiting info and I don't have a twitter account so I don't tweet recruits but I don't have any problem with those that do. I always find it funny when people try to differentiate the two.

That said the picture is funny nonetheless.

Several possibilities:

1. Play the accordion while announcing his school choice.
2. Perform the "To be or not to be...." soliloquy from "Hamlet"
3. Reveal where Jimmy Hoffa was buried
4. Explain how sheep bladders may be employed to prevent earthquakes

Careful, cocknblue, I hear that there is a werewolf running around. Killed a little old lady last night, but dresses well. Not!

I agree, but why not just say "I'm not going to commit till after I've taken my last OV."

I think other schools use our scheme of 2 LB against us....gives them less chance of playing and if they have any hope of going to the NFL, the hybrid Spur hurts those like Allen and Holloman getting into the NFL.

Who you got.

Moore 80%
Senat 75%
Yannick 49% NSD
Walton 45%
Lyons 40% NSD
Bryant 40% NSD

I think we'll get Moore and Senat, and then 1 of the other 4. I'll take Yannick.
I do think we have a legitimate shot at the other 3.....none are longshots in my opinion. It this happens, that means we closed with 5 really good players including Rodgers and Blue.

After this past weekend and some of the comments I've read, I think Moore's percentage should be dropped from 80 to 60. I still like our chances, but not as much as I did.

What have you heard? It seems like his parents do not want him to go to Rutgers and they didn't even make the trip with him on his OV. I've read some Rutgers boards and they still feel like he is going to USC.

That's in the ESPN article?

Now, it looks like he is going to Arkansas this weekend. Moore does not strike me as a person to take OV's just to visit.

Damn well hope we have impressed him enough to sign him.

[LegalCock]

Yep, I see it in the below summary. Doesn't make much sense when read in conjunction with the overall limitation. Unless the NCAA was concerned about giving walk-ons scholarships or thought that was punitive or if what C2 says is how it works. Perhaps a lack of clarity in the wording or the actual penalties is to be expected given the recent performance of the both Carolina compliance and the NCAA.
