Talty's reporting reminds me of........
- Thread starter archdog
- Start date
Curiously, I've never read his articles but I see a lot about him on here. What has he lied about?
He reports Yancy-style
little breadcrumbs through twitter that filter though the ole miss half of the story.

Nothing that we know of, until signing day. If all this holds true, and we have the biggest meltdown in the history of recruiting, then I don't see how Talty could be anything but correct.
If we finish strong, it would seem that there is some bias. Next Wednesday is going be be righteous n ****.

Most objective recruitniks see it that way right now though. Nkemdiche is all but a lock to Ole Miss, and nobody knows on Jones.
Like I said, bias will be blown up come NSD.

He's lied on a couple of things. He reported Jones was visiting Bama a couple of weeks ago when Jones was nowhere near Alabama...plus a couple of others
He was also at The Library Friday night for "Rebel Recruitapalooza" as his g/f named it- but we didnt get any feedback, tweets, stories...nothing from all that. Wonder why?
Did he revoke that statement or did he just leave it? There's a difference between being wrong and lying.
And I perused his tweets and saw your hard proof of them at the Library. Nice job there Sherlock.

He doesn't seem to realize (or care)
what that sort of thing does to the perception of his journalistic integrity. Either you show up to something like that in an official capacity and file a story, or you don't go at all.
Showing up just to party with his ole miss gal and the ole miss recruits while wearing his red and blue paints him as a hack.

Looks like no matter what happens this will be the best class(on Paper) MSU has signed in 10 years. It can be GOOD-BETTER-BEST. So let's quit gnashing our teeth and see what happens. Getting them to sign is just part 1. Part 2. is keeping them together and Part 3(and the most important) Coaching them Up.
Trust our Coaches. Look Ole Miss out recruits Us every year (On Paper) but they have trouble with part 2 and 3. Contrary to what some believe, the actual playing of the game is more important. I'll be satisfied with winning 3 out of the next 4, let the Rebs win their Cruiting Trophy. And we will win Parts 2 &3.

Well we will see...
our 2009 and 2012 classes were both pretty strong. This class could potentially be better than those or worse depending on how things play out here at the end. Both of those were in the 20 to 25 range as far as ranking.
Let me see if I can understand.
You regularly post stuff that is proven wrong more often than not. When proven wrong, you say "things changed" or "it's fluid".
Yet this Talty cat, who you presume to be in on some conspiracy against MSU, tweets that Jones will visit Bama "per @robbydonoho" and you say he lied?
Here is the tweet copy and pasted:
John Talty <s>@</s>JTalty Houston DE Chris Jones, MSU commit, is visiting Alabama today, per <s>@</s>robbydonoho

It's obvious that he credits the Donoho guy, who was wrong. How is that a lie?
Then Talty goes on the record as getting bad info.
- John Talty <s>@</s>JTalty
One of the dangers of Twitter is there is a lot of misinformation out there. Should have waited to tweet while trying to confirm. Apologies.

For some clarification: Houston coach William Cook says Jones was in Houston today and had no plans of taking visits.

THIS
Shocking that someone from Batesville doesnt understand what a journalist's job is
He follows high school recruiting for the Clarion Ledger, but the kid graduated college a few years ago and does little to find actual info (so it seems), besides cruising message boards and retweeting others. His work has a pretty obvious slant to cater toward OM fans.
