damn you.
August 12th, 2009 at 10:12 AM ^
But you checked to see if it was here first, and that makes you better than at least 25% of MGoBoard users. +1
August 12th, 2009 at 10:09 AM ^
Yes, it doesn't look particularly promising, but things may change. I'd wait this one out a little.
August 12th, 2009 at 11:58 AM ^
That question begs another. Are you Sam Webb?
August 12th, 2009 at 10:09 AM ^
Didnt the same thing happen a few weeks ago when he had a top three we were not in, but then another article came out and said we were getting a visit?
August 12th, 2009 at 10:11 AM ^
he says that to someone other than ESPN, i'll take it a touch more seriously
August 12th, 2009 at 10:11 AM ^
Those are official visits. He's supposed to take an unofficial to Ann Arbor.
August 12th, 2009 at 10:11 AM ^
He's said he wants to get a visit, be it official or unofficial, to Ann Arbor. That said, I wouldn't hold your breath on landing him.
August 12th, 2009 at 10:13 AM ^
I wouldn't read to much into this, from what I've noticed he keeps his recruiting pretty close to the vest so we should wait and see what happens.

Cue the wave of people panicking and bitching on DT recruiting....
August 12th, 2009 at 11:11 AM ^
ZOMG we have no DT recruits!!!!
August 12th, 2009 at 12:08 PM ^
The sky is falling...
August 12th, 2009 at 10:14 AM ^
don't like it.
August 12th, 2009 at 10:17 AM ^
the catbox
August 12th, 2009 at 10:28 AM ^

August 12th, 2009 at 10:54 AM ^
Rock the Casbah?
August 12th, 2009 at 11:06 AM ^
You, sir, are a murderer.
August 12th, 2009 at 11:09 AM ^
Then lets see some necromancy. Anyone?
August 12th, 2009 at 12:07 PM ^
the fat jocks
(Boren-inspired)
August 12th, 2009 at 11:18 AM ^
I have a strong temptation to submit this to fail blog.
August 12th, 2009 at 10:15 AM ^
We need a lot of these big time studs to wait to commit until the all star games or until signing day. That will allow this season to change some minds.
August 12th, 2009 at 10:54 AM ^
Maybe I didn't... I provided the link and used nothing word for word... sorry I forgot to use an MLA format when i provided a link to information... if that's plagiarism, then so is every article with a link anywhere else
August 12th, 2009 at 12:14 PM ^
You're not supposed to lift information directly from a premium source, so... fucking stop it.
August 12th, 2009 at 1:34 PM ^
"The material on the Premium Ticket Service is for the private, non-commercial enjoyment of Subscribers only. Any other use is strictly prohibited. Rivals and its publishing partners spend a great deal of time and money to obtain the information appearing on its web sites. Subscribers agree that they will not copy, publish, or in any way make available publicly any news, pictures, interviews, features, or any other information from Rivals web sites, without express written permission from Rivals. Subscribers agree that, should they do so, Rivals reserves the right to cancel their subscription immediately without refund. Additionally, reuse of copyrighted information (pictures, interviews, features, videos, audio, etc.) will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."
From the Rivals ToS.
Let's do a quick course on Terms of Service violations vs Copyright infringement.
Copyright infringement = reposting exactly as it appears originally information, for example "TJ Blog 101: Morgan Trent did not break his arm at practice today..."
Terms of Service violation = sharing "private" information that you paid to access, for example "Beaver says that Trent didn't break his arm today."
Only one of these is illegal. Additionally, the onus is on Rivals to enforce their policies in both cases. So, technically, someone that's not a member of Rivals can do pretty much whatever they want as long as they don't break copyright laws. There are no repercussions except getting shit from people who are paying to know something sooner than everyone else. Or, in the case of scout, for Tom Beaver to confirm that Jeremy Gallon is the author of status updates on Jeremy Gallon's facebook page.
TL;DR - QQ more noob.

Well Pretty Boy Floyd will come if we build it, and by build it I mean not suck.

Another great name is probably down the drain.
