Truth - and they all have skeletons in their closets of one kind or another. So that being said... why are we so concerned about hiring a coach with supposed strong character and integrity? They don't exist. 1 Quote Link to comment

Got a good one today that is very reliable. I don’t want to divulge too much but heard it from my brother who heard it directly from the recruits mother. I’m not going to give the recruits name or his school. B. Ruud made a recruiting visit to the kids school and he was clearly drunk during the visit. LB recruit, 30 schools offered him, ended up signing with Clemson. My brother told me this today as we were discussing all the Frost stories that are coming out now. Thought it went along with this topic. And boom…proof of a systemic problem 1 1 Quote Link to comment

They quit telling him about the pods because he drank all the wine that was intended for the show. Fact or rumor ? You decide ! I mean I drink….but you would think these guys could dial it down for a recruiting visit. Seems pretty inappropriate to me. This kid was probably out of our league and maybe headed to Clemson anyway but these clowns need to rep the University and team. Good way to wipe out any potential recruits from a school for quite a few years. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

We don’t need a scandal involving reckless, disreputable conduct on top of everything else. There’s enough challenges already. 1 Quote Link to comment

That is why I know it's BS. It's like telephone where the state, coach, name of recruit, and alcohol of choice change but the story is the same. Systematic problems maybe do exist but this is laughable. 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment

I wasn't referring to the stuff that's already known. I was referring to the stuff still hidden that may or may not come out in the future. They all have stuff they try to keep hidden. Some are better at hiding than others. 1 Quote Link to comment

Neither one of us has any reason to cast NU in a bad light, we’re both huge fans. The recruits mother also had no reason I know of to be telling my brother a lie. I’m not giving the recruits name or his school or how my brother knows his mom (all which I could) so I understand some skepticism but I’m accepting it as fact. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

I was not being sarcastic. Maybe a little, but it’s funny how fast a long time board member can be discounted. but I guess BR could have a drinking problem all on his own. Quote Link to comment
