Bingo; this is our lot in life. That’s why it irritates me when the savvy opine that we ‘don’t recruit hard enough.’
He ain’t going to like it!!!Hopefully Tamarion Watkins comes our way.
Samari Matthews goes with Texas
Huntersville (N.C.) Hough four-star cornerback Samari Matthews, a long-time South Carolina target, committed to Texas on Friday night.www.on3.com
Austin ain't what it used to be and has gone the way of most liberal cesspools.
Maybe; maybe not.
State College, home to Penn State. This place in the middle of nowhere.
In the midst of a $700 million stadium renovation, the most expensive in college football history.
True, but for kids it’s still a great place. Great restaurants and the live music scene is second to none. Hill country is cool too. Hotter than Cola though.
Columbia isn't exactly a huge draw as a town for college kids. I don't recall hearing many students or former students talking about how they fell in love with Columbia.
That scandal is 15 years old and no one involved is still at the school or in the program. HS kids today have no memory of that story at all. A better reason to not go to Penn State is that their coach is a total *******.
So, you're saying it was justified because it happened a long time ago? And I agree on Franklin. I'm not biased here. If that type of cover up occurred at Carolina, I would disown them and not ever have another thought.
I never said it was justified in any way. It was horrible. My point is; today's recruits aren't even aware of that scandal, the same as Carolina's recruits aren't aware of the steroid scandal.
As damnable as it was, it was also dealt with stringently on multiple fronts and does not devolve on the current staff or athletes. I wish that our own university enjoyed the same academic and research attainments as Penn State.
What a misbegotten representation of his intent. I believe I'll just go ahead and "disown" you right now.
HIs intent was to rebut an opinion, when he could have left well enough alone. And to conflate Steroid use by adult men with what happened at PS suggests he might have bigger issues than my opinion about PS. I know full well the downside to Steroid use. My sister dated Steve Courson while he was at Carolina. She told me about his wild mood swings that eventually ended their relationship. The rest is history. The part of the Penn State scandal that it was seemingly common knowledge by a lot of people that turned the blind eye in the name of the cult following. And I distinctly remember the very next year after it was dealt with, 4- and 5-star kids were hanging their hat on the PS banner. It all seems odd to me and me stating so shouldn't demand a retort.
Anyone with even nominal perspicacity would have understood the intent of the Pisces' post currently in question. Somebody was wanting to start something.
