Is there something wrong with the SECRant Google search function?

I've had trouble with this before, and always just chalked it up to random search trouble, but now I'm almost sure something is amiss.
Just now I was trying to find that old SEC Rant thread discussing Stuart Turner, and I typed in "barash chinea stuart turner ole miss" and got nothing.
Then I went straight to Google's website and typed in "secrant barash chinea stuart turner ole miss", and I still got nothing.
For some reason, Google searches work for TigerDroppings threads, but they don't seem to work for SEC Rant threads.

Do it like this:
"site:secrant.com whatever you're searching for"
"site:secrant.com whatever you're searching for"

Hmmm, that does help, as I did stumble upon another thread that way when I tried it.
I still can't find the thread I'm looking for though.
I guess maybe the SEC Rant is low on Google's page rank algorithm right now because it's still too new?

If it's not showing up, my best guesses are
A) Issues with search parameters
B) Thread was whacked
C) Thread is on a closed board

I already found the thread in question by going through a few pages of my old SEC Rant posts.
It's just that SEC Rant threads almost never show up on Google searches.
