Good point.

 

[Black Bear Conspiracy]

Thanks for the tip. Here's one for you. Go have somebody read this thread that's not a State fan or Ole Miss fan and ask them who looks like they're wrong.

 

[tatedog]

I don't know anyone I hate that much who isn't already reading this.

 

[Black Bear Conspiracy]

Well, man, I'm not trying to make this personal because you're definitely entitled to your opinion but maybe you should get out more.

 

[tatedog]

Back at ya.

I called my BAMA friend into my office to read this thread. The first thing he asked was "who is that Black Bear Conspiracy douchebag"?

If your Bama friend has any relatives who are in constant direct contact with Nick Saban, advise him to pass along to keep it on the down low with Freeze (he's a bit of a chatter box).

A two sentence answer that oh just happened to mention that they talk on the phone. And I guess one thread that for the most part was directing ridicule at one already despised Ole Miss poster instead of Freeze himself is going batshit insane. Gotcha.

Well if they still talk periodically, what's the harm? And if you think this is the only discussion of this topic by MSU fans, then you need to get out more.

Caught me! I was under the impression that nobody anywhere else in the world had discussed this. You are the one who referred to the response as bat-**** crazy. I didn't quite see it that way. I don't think myself or anyone else on this board ever said there was any harm in two adults talking. What we had the audacity to question is why Freeze thought the general public needed to know that they talk when Jones hasn't said a word about it since he put on an MSU uniform. If Jones was indeed confiding in Freeze for whatever reason he has, then you'd think some discretion would be in order.

Don't know about the Freeze/Jones relationship, and I don't really care. But as far as Jones saying UM was on him first- Jones said in the video that UM was the first to get on him two years ago (in other words, in 2011 when Nutt was there). Freeze and his staff weren't even in the picture until two or three months before signing day.

I find it funny that all throughout 2012, Yancy and co. claimed that 2* Chris Jones wasn't good enough for UM to offer. I also remember many a UM fan bitching about some MSU/Houston HS football coach conspiracy to keep Jones hidden from UM to make sure he wasn't discovered by Freeze. Now the party line is that Freeze knew about him all along and was on him first? Sounds like some revisionist history.

It's an off hand remark answering a direct question. He said they still talked. It's not like he said "Jones likes me more than Mullen" or something like that.

And if you have trouble with reading comprehension, go back and read my comment. I said "MSU fans." I didn't say you personally or anyone on this thread specifically. Over at ED they're debating whether it's a recruiting violation when Jones isn't even a recruit anymore. They're also questioning Jones' commitment to the team. And MSU fans on Twitter have been crazy about it.

Yes, MSU fans have been batshit insane over a complete non-issue.

A complete non-issue that Ole Miss people keep bumping to the top of the board? Gotcha. If you don't like stupid people who talk about stupid stuff that stupid coaches say then I suggest ED and Twitter might not be for you.

Recruiting violation? Who said anything about a recruiting violation? It is, however, a violation of NCAA bylaws.

"An athletics staff member or other representative of the institution’s athletics interests shall not make contact with the student-athlete of another NCAA or NAIA four-year collegiate institution, directly or indirectly, without first obtaining the written permission of the first institution’s athletics director...."

I think that specifically refers to contact in the context of a transfer (I could be wrong). It would be a pretty hard rule to even consider enforcing especially if the athlete makes first contact, which no exception is made for according to the rule.

That is probably the intention of the rule. And I personally don't really give a damn if Jones and Freeze talk every once in a while- even though I can also see why it would upset Mullen.

Just trying to point out it's not crazy for someone interpret that as a violation of an NCAA bylaw- and that I don't think I have once seen anyone claim that it is a "recruiting violation" while Jones is already in school. He just totally pulled that out of his ***.
