No dumbazz that was a post I copied and pasted from notch8 on the UL Scout board. He's saying he was homerblue. His post is in this thread on the 2nd page. http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=17&f=2759&t=14760210&p=2

Well, I guess I do feel like a dumbass. Dork and Homer are artists, to be sure. Caricatures of the stereotypical fan they are spoofing. Good fun....
We had Bloodbought on the Louisville Scout board who was also a great troll. He made it several years and then finally got banned. He still trolls on Twitter, but it just doesn't have that same feel.
No...don't think he received an offer from Louisville...that is why I say I would be surprised.
OK - I've been on this board for over a year and a half, and I've never figured out what L1C4 means. Some one please educate me.
"Lawless once...criminals forever" because they have so many kids arrested. The ones that are not arrested are only bit arrested because Turtleneck Tom covers it up. He has more power than the pawn of a mayor and the Prez at Turdville. They have more arrest over a long weekend than most teams do over the course of the year.
I am not a troll like some believe. I just believe in our boys and Stoops. Sorry some of you don't have faith. I will work harder to keep the faith for you!!
Here's the thing, I don't mind a dissenting opinion from a UL fan. Of course, you will give UL the benefit of the doubt while most here will not. My problem with most UL fans that come over here is your unwillingness to EVER criticize your school / coach / team even when all of the evidence points to the contrary. I will often criticize UK when it deserves criticism. It would be refreshing to have a few UL fans that will actually fess up and say "yea, we have some pretty shady recruiting practices" or "petrino is a helluva a coach but just can't recruit at a high level" as opposed to the constant cheerleading on all topics UL. There used to be a few "reasonable" UL fans on this board, but they seem to have all disappeared.
Louisville fans will criticize Louisville...amongst themselves. They'll definitely not do it with enemy fan base here in which every single comment is nothing but a put down, criticism, wild unfounded accusation, belittling. You name it, you can literally say anything, bring up any topic Louisville's uniforms, their stadium, their bowl, history, their record, their schedule, their GPA, the campus, the professors, the landscaping around campus or the stadium, the players...it doesn't matter what you bring up regarding the university or the football team, every topic of conversation will be an endless collection of put downs, accusations, excuse making. Every game Louisville has ever won there are endless comments as to why it was luck, a fluke, that team was down, they were no good, it is all cupcake scheduling and luck. Every win against Kentucky is luck, cheating, you're just down but you're really a vastly superior program we just lucked out and caught you with a bad coach or during NCAA sanctions...you're really great and we really suck, we just got lucky, we cheat, we're corrupt you're all saints and Christian, brain surgeons, every Louisville player is a gang banger out of Compton. All of your coaches are Deacons, fine upstanding pillars of the community, every coach Louisville has ever had is some rogue, scum of the underworld, every player that has ever come through Louisville is some worthless lowlife, even if there are no issues with any of the players that's just proof to you there is some massive cover up to hide it because Louisville's AD is corrupt and "controls the city" while your AD is a model citizen beyond reproach. I've listened to UK's propaganda and running down of Louisville since I was in middle school. Trust me, the last thing I'll ever do is join in with a UK fan to start criticizing my school. UK fans do it with every breath, you don't need any Louisville fans to join in with you. When we criticize it we'll do it amongst ourselves. You criticize every single aspect of it enough all on your own. Is that reasonable enough for you?
LOL. You done rambling like a crybaby? Here's the thing that I guarantee you don't get or don't understand: Your fans do the. exact. same. thing.
Let me guess...nah, UofL fans are "different", you guys aren't obsessed with hating on UK? Right?
If you wanna come over here and cry about big bad awful UK fans, then at least do it when your fan-base isn't a bunch of obsessed, insecure, UK hating clowns. LOL, yeah, Louisville fans don't criticize every aspect of UK. Awwww, you've listened to it since middle school? You are the perfect UofL fan. You're all sensitive to what UK fans say, but you're too dumb to realize your fans are just as bad, if not worse.
You UofL fans sure are a classy bunch and I sure feel sorry for you having to put up with those darned mean UK fans. Typical "I am the victim fan" BS. Grow up and get with reality.
I understand your post, but I don't agree with it. Here is why I don't agree:
-I have three very close friends who are UL diehard alumni / fans. They post on both the scout and rivals forums. Two of them are tired of the incessant scandal and they want the school to clean house (Jurich, Pitino, et al). One of them dared question whether the school should get rid of Pitino on the scout board and he was blackballed after being a devout card fan / poster for years and years and years (he is around 40 years old). Contrast that with these boards where UK fans often criticize our own school, coaches, etc when it is warranted (and those people are not immediately blasted as trolls or UL fans in disguise).
-Look at the reaction to the scandals. The number of UL fans with their heads in the sand is astonishing to me. Most blame Katina or Ramsey or the media or UK or IU or ANYONE BUT THE PEOPLE RUNNING THE ATHLETIC DEPT OR THE HIGH PROFILE PROGRAMS that are the subject of said scandals. If this were a business, then Ramsey and TJ would be fired. CEOs are responsible for bad publicity or scandal and they take the fall. Pitino would have been fired from every other school in the country, but UL fans have instead blamed everyone else BUT Pitino. They lash out at ESPN and local media and Vanetti and Matt Jones and everyone else as a scapegoat. It's a pretty shocking display of groupthink. We have plenty of "fanboys" in our fanbase too, but the ratio of that type of thinking in the UL world is pretty shocking.
-Even if you don't agree with my two examples above, you have to understand that you're on our board. If I was a frequent visitor on the UL boards, then I wouldn't expect anyone to "be reasonable" with me in discussing UK / UL issues, but if you're wanting to come over here, then I'm not sure why you wouldn't want to be more even-handed in your analysis. Otherwise, what's the point?
The fact that this guy can post here is proof positive that this site is worlds better than any UL fan site.
Like this post because you are absolutely correct about everything that is believed about the Otis program among the BBN ,and we really don't give a damn if you like it not!! My advise to you is stay on your on damn board and don't come here crying looking for sympathy!!
Ok....there is a lot of truth there.
HOWEVER....
This does not apply to me. I don't have a desperate need to belitte your program like some here do because I consider you beneath us overall and I REFUSE to give your school any more space on our board than it clutters up already. I rarely give your school a thought unless we're meeting on the field. Both sides have petulant little children on their boards...just don't clump me in with you guys..
Pretty shady? No. We have taken some risks that worked out quite well, and others that did not. With a roster of 85 young men, there are going to be some misses - that's inevitable. UofL is not alone in that area, by any stretch of the imagination.
I can agree there. He'd probably be a great recruiter at Alabama or Ohio State, but at Louisville, Western Kentucky and Arkansas, he's only been able to sign unheralded players (and take a few transfers) and coach them up. That level of success can get you to 3rd or 4th best in the ACC, but we probably don't beat Florida State or Clemson very often with that recruiting level. Which leads us back to taking more risks to improve the roster....
Petrino is a POS, he can beat us 10 times in a row and he will still be a arrogant, self serving, despicable human being. The fact that UL hired him speaks to the culture of their Athletic Department and I am glad our Athletic Department at least portrays some sense of credibility concerning morals and ethics.
uavel is a sewer..is Rod Council still in North Carolina Penitentiary for 30 years for the armed robbery with an Uzi...that was a hell of a story..while wearing his uavel letter jacket..
a scumbag like Tommy Turtleneck..what crap has this dirtbag pulled I hate to research it..
ouch Willie Wiliams I forgot him..Turtleneck slid his *** in the back door after 12 felonies..[eyeroll][eyeroll]
Regarding the "shady" comment, you can stick your head in the sand like most other UL people, but this is not a figment of UK fan imagination. Every time a wayward player is kicked off of a team, national writers like Staples, Schlabach, and Mandel immediately tweet out that UL will be interested. It's a punch line. You're right that some of them have "worked out" but at what expense? Pretty clear that UL can't recruit at a high level unless they're seeking bad egg transfers to fill roster gaps.
Don't care what Staples, Schlabach and Mandel think. If that's me putting my head in the sand, so be it. I'm sure UK fans don't like what Matt Hayes (the sportswriter who coined the term "Louisville's Play Toy") thinks, either. "Sticks and stones ...."
I will certainly admit that how we recruit for football is risky. So far the risks have been well worth the rewards. The reality has been that the overwhelming majority of the second chances we have given have worked out well for both UofL and the player. So much so that many UK fans on this board have decided that Tom Jurich is a Jedi who uses the force the control the local police and media while our players rape and pillage with impunity.
In any event, this thread appears to be OBE. UofL took a verbal from a JC offensive lineman (Joey Palmer) this week. That probably means we aren't taking the Alabama transfer.
Not many Big Brothers obsess over their little brothers as much as here.......really need to stop this nonsense....getting close to Duke levels
I smell a UL troll posing as a UK fan. Matter of fact, after reading some of your previous posts, I'm 100% positive about it. Talk about obsession. Can't get any more obsessed and creepier than that.
Look I hate Otis as much as the next guy, but UK fans need to realize that their fanbase is NOT putting their heads in the sand on this, and quite the contrary...they are PROUD of this kind of stuff and NOTHING has mattered with Benedict, Petrino, Hurtt, players driving new cars all over town, police and the media covering up anything and everything that goes on...they wear it as a badge of honor and not shame as long as the winning continues...the Lmpd and media are actually Oits and TJ's "play toy" and they are all more than happy to contribute to the game.
I'd wondered how long it would take before you showed up, since you've accuse nearly everyone of being a troll at one time or another.
Just because someone doesn't agree with you doesn't make them a troll.....well maybe in your eyes. Believe it or not, people can have differing opinions and still be UK fans. I see you getting some weird joy out of this kinda thing, like those hardcore left/right wingnuts who claim that anyone who doesn't agree with them is un-american.
My opinion is just that...mine. Sometimes I'll agree with what i'm "supposed to" and sometimes I won't.
You're just going to have to deal with that.
Kids make mistakes. Hell, we all make mistakes. But giving a kid a second or third chance to grow up is commendable. In the Army, our best leaders (NCO's) where often characterized by their ability to take the troubled Sh-it bag and develop him/her into a professional Soldier. Now I'm not giving any praise to Petrino's morals off the field, but I will commend him on taking in troubled young men and going the extra mile to give them another chance at a better future for them and their entire families. BTW the nickname "Redemption U" doesn't sound derogatory. And hopefully Tubman does get a second chance somewhere. Its a shame that the kindergarten court trumped the actual legal system, totally ignoring due process and kicked this kid to the curb.

The best football players are usually warriors who hail from less than ideal situations. It's not like most of these guys grew up with great father figures. Look at that list...most of the top ten schools are SEC, but the SEC is the best conference. Coincidence? I think not. By the way UofL is 49th on that list, but I guess you'll come back with something about LMPD.

We have gone over this article time and time again. It is inaccurate and useless.
Just because it doesn't fit your narrative doesn't makes it inaccurate and useless.
My narrative? Your second post...what were your other screen names?
That article states it is arrested players on college football teams...what team does Devonte Fields count for?..thats right, he counts as a TCU guy, but he plays for UL.
It counts signees that never played a snap (practice or game) for teams, even though they were dismissed before being a part of their program.
It is ridiculous, inaccurate and useless.
And if you are a Card fan, I have said many times that I don't have a problem with many of the players they take. The ones like Devonte Fields, Willie Williams and Mike Dyer are ones I would question and call out...guys like Harvey Clemons, Gerald Christian I really have no problem with...either attitude or playing time reasons, no problem with those guys.
The amount of transfers I would think increases the chances of something backfiring, which would also make me uneasy if I was a UL fan...but I am not.
Why would he count for UofL? He has never been arrested while there. The article is about players arrested while attending that school. Neither Fields or Dyer were ever convicted of anything. I will give you Williams.
