You really find it amusing that everyone time one of your sources is wrong you post someone cheated.

You sound like a Hilary supporter.

Apparently you don't understand how foolish your remarks are. Information about the status of where Bama stands in a recruitment can be very accurate at the time it's shared and then the situation can change quickly and substantially. That doesn't mean he and his source(s) were wrong at the time. You've made similar and equally foolish remarks along these lines before. You might think you're making him look like a fraud or something, but you're really just making yourself look foolish.

I understand why people treat him like they do on this forum but I also remember NSD 17 where he got himself banned for the day for being a fraud and acting like a dickhead when his predictions proved to be fraudulent.

It's OK to appreciate the info that he gets from TideInsider and other sources but to treat others like fools for calling him out is just plain wrong. He does a good job of supplying paid for info but I refuse to sit here and treat the guy like he's an actual insider.

Actually I had confused Bama3714 with Boz. It's Boz who does have some connections, including some former players, iirc.

Still, I don't see any big issue with what Bama3714 posts. He doesn't seem to portray himself as an insider. What's the harm in him saying who thinks Bama leads for or will likely land. And so what if he doesn't get it right? Lot's of the recruiting site pros who do it for living can't predict very well either.

He's full of shite the majority of the time and people on here give him credit for making vague predictions with no basis. It gets old for those of us who follow this thread without participating.

To be fair bama3714 has never claimed to be an insider. He says where he gets his info from. If he gets anything right or wrong he doesn't take credit for it. He just repeats the info that he reads on other sites. I'm thankful that he brings the info here.

Boz is the guy who was in the tunnel and is the insider.

On a side note, AHM, it's almost big brother time and the thread has started

Like I mentioned, I go back to 2017 NSD when he made an arse of himself because his projections proved to be wrong. He got banned because he overreacted when he was called out on it.

You can stand by his word but I'm skeptical.

I appreciate your opinion. I would like to set the record straight, though, because that's not actually what happened.

What ACTUALLY happened was this: I was very defensive, and turned into attack mode when people would come after me. I actually said I wanted to get a ban beforehand, so I did. Was that a "dickhead" move, and a bit of a troll? Probably so. I had my occasional days here or there a couple years ago where I liked to "troll" a few individuals (generally those who were coming after me). I have neither the time nor the desire for that now. I detest drama and confrontation these days. I will do it if I need to, but certainly don't seek after it. It zaps my energy, and just isn't enjoyable to me. At no time did my predictions "prove to be fraudulent", though. If so, I'd like to hear one example, because that's honestly news to me. Was I wrong on some recruit, or even a few of them? Probably. Who isn't? I'm not an insider, and have never claimed to be. I do communicate with several of them, even offline, though. I have named most of them by name (Rodney Orr, Drew DeArmond, Redfish, Bama K, or Kevin Hagan usually). So if any of my "predictions" are deemed to be fraudulent, take it up with those guys, because it's most certainly not my lone information. Take that or leave it.

You might be talking about Devin White. I remember being wrong about that (though, I'll mention, I was told that things radically changed when he got the criminal charge... now, whether that's true or not, I don't know). Otherwise, I don't recall ever being proven fraudulent. At no time do I ever remember purposely posting disinformation on here. Sometimes I don't mention the specific source (of the few guys I mentioned) by name. There's usually a reason for that. It may look to a couple of you like a "hey... look at me.. this is MY information" post, but I assure you it isn't. There's a good reason for it. Sometimes they don't want to be identified as the person who gave the information. I understand and respect that, so I don't mention them by name. Sometimes, it's mentioned either semi-publicly or by more than one of them, so I'll post names.

This is what I don't get. Honestly, what in the world are you talking about? Vague predictions?? When am I vague? Some of you see what you want to see, apparently.

Clearly never asked for a comparison. I dont believe you are so extremely stupid you thought i asked for that though. You just didnt have a better reply, scrambled, then thats the spin you desperately tried to apply. A failure on your part, but it lets me see how weak minded you are.

My "Are you sure?" question was aimed at you speaking on behalf of some unknown number of silent lurkers who you claimed are as irritated by Bama3714 as you and TW are.

I don't stand by Bama3714's word. I do like that he brings some info from TI and/or other sources. But I take it with a grain of salt, especially since it's second hand, restated in his own words.

I don't think I was even hanging out on this board following recruiting for the 2017 class.

I'm not sure of the year, but he got banned. He was just screwing around though. It was funny


I don't think he was even banned for a full day. I took it all as a big joke when it happened
