in the title. They are discussing a post that was made on the spirit or the other pay site about someone (brad lott?) posting information about what they did this recruiting season. Apparently the guy posted that they did alot of illegal **** on the recruiting front and everyone is pissed at him for posting it. I wonder if Coach Wilson is printing it off?
Interesting post on nafoom with Brad Lott
- Thread starter DirtyLopez
- Start date
The level of detail that Brad went into in his post was very revealing and shocking to say the least.
Im not sure what Chuck was thinking leaving it up. I guess he really is just thumbing his nose at MSU and daring them to catch us. Personally, I think it is stupid to talk about it so openly, but its not my site.

I didn't read the whole thread, but his initial post was saying that sometimes fans didn't need to know every little detail of what was going on with recruiting.
For instance, the coaches may be trying to work on a recruit without an opposing staff catching wind of it, and if that's the case, the "insiders" who pay their $100 a year are better off being in the dark about, so that it doesn't become public knowledge. In other words, fans mettle too much in recruiting and push for information too much and often are a hindrance to a staff's efforts.
That was the general gist of the post I read. I don't know if anything else was said later in the thread. Halpert interpreted it that we were cheating. I don't think that's what he was saying.
I took it to be a reference to the Dee Arrington thing, whether it was made up or not about him wanting to visit. The feeling was that it becoming public allowed some people in his family/coaches/etc. to put a stop to the visit. Like I said, who knows the truth about that, but that was the general type of situation I think he was referring to.
ETA: I could see where the post might have been interpreted the other way, but I am pretty sure Lott wouldn't have posted something to mean the other interpretation. He can be a dumbass sometimes, but I don't think he's that dumb, nor would Chuck or one of his mods pinned the post at one point if that's what was meant by it.

I do remember Yancy saying "OM had figured out a way to keep us in front of several of our top in state targets." He said there would be details come out after signing day, and he posted that around Christmas.
My guess is that he was talking about sending CJ Johnson, Singleton, and Brassell to San Antonio with Bobby Hall, Lance Pouge, Scott "The Driver" Lindsey, and Yancy all in town with them.

It goes something like this:
1. I, along with the Spirit staff,know something you don't know about recruiting.
2. I can't tell you what I know because it will hurt our recruiting efforts.
3. And no, your $99/year subscription doesn't entitle you to know it.
