Thought I would but not to much going on. I could tell you guys something big but y’all don’t like when I Forshadow stuff.
It’s been so dry as of late recruiting wise bc of the dead period.

It's not the foreshadowing it's the cliffhangers like "I could tell you something big" and then say nothing. It is like a teasing woman :
If you got something share it

^^He's right you know.
I had information directly from the cousin of a QB recruit that was training him last year. I didn't speak on it because I didn't want to tease and I didn't want to say the information out of respect. I was in their position so I understand this is their moment.
Anyways, it's the teasing of information. If you're going to say it say it. If you can't just don't say anything.

You seem to be fos bro. You don't know anything anymore than the rest of us. Just drop the insider bit and enjoy the thread and enjoy the posters here and the info they bring.

Or stop the “I could say something big” type posts and just say “look for X to happen in the next few days barring something unexpected changing”. That’d be fine too

You seem to be fos bro. You don't know for sure that he doesn't get "inside" info. Several of his posts have shown that he does. Pretendsiders are fos. But from I've seen so far he isn't one.
Recruiting is fluid. If inside info doesn't align with what happens later on, that doesn't prove the info wasn't valid at the time it was shared. Heck, even the Bama coaching staff can't predict what some of their recruits will do.
Far worse than pretendsiders are the torch and pitchfork mob fools who attack good insiders because they got their hopes up for landing a recruit and it didn't happen. Kill the messenger! They run off good insider posters or convince them it's just not worth it to share info.
As some have already said, "teaser" posts are lame. Otherwise, I hope he keeps sharing info.

I was told a couple days ago that bama would in fact get a commitment not named Dax Hill in the next 10 days.

Try to ignore when they accuse you of being fake. Many of us have seen your nuggets line up and we know your bring value to the discussion.
I know part of why you do the tease is to prove you have real sources. It's just it can be annoying to be teased all the time.

That is all I see from the guy. I am not trying to come off as hostile to the guy and I certainly don't want him to stop posting. I am probably one of the worst posters here but he really isn't sharing any inside info at all. He is saying he has info but never reveals what it is. Just doesn't add up.

Can you share who it is, or is it supposed to be kept secret?
ETA: TidalSurge thinks he's figured out who it is.

I only have a problem with the teaser stuff. If you have info, just share it and tell everyone that you haven't verified it yet or don't say anything at all until it's verified. It's an easy solution

Has it occurred to you that maybe you missed some of his posts? Apparently it hasn't. It also appears you didn't bother to review his post history before running your mouth, because you're actually very wrong.
In fact, he's done a couple of huge posts about where things stood with almost all of Bama's top targets, but later took the info out of those posts. I assumed he decided to pull it because he had shared some stuff that Bama's staff wouldn't want shared openly.

Yeah, he was right about big Jasyon Jones committing the next day. That post had a lot of good nuggets.....
Posted on 8/5/18 at 1:14 pm to TidalSurge1
Heck, what position is this possible new commit?
Posted on 8/5/18 at 1:16 pm to colbyjacks
There's a subtle clue in the ETA.

This is the tricky part. And also the issue I face when sharing info that I get from other sites, email threads, etc.. is that some people never want their name mentioned, else they're afraid their sources will figure out they're sharing something the may not should be sharing (and rarely do I know whether they should be or not).
There's no telling how many times I started to type something here, thought about it for a minute, and just erased it, not sure whether they would want the information to be shared on a public message board. I usually wait until something gets to a more accessible message board (like TI) these days before bringing it here. While TI is a pay site, eventually something on there will get around. And this being a public forum that anybody can read (even rival fans) adds to the complication. Not everyone who reads this thread wants what's best for Alabama football. There are a lot of time where I sit here and try to figure out if there's some way sharing some info might hurt Alabama's chances to land someone. You wouldn't think it would be the case, but even sharing 2nd/3rd hand information can be a little tricky.

You must have missed my nuggets post.
Posted on 8/5/18 at 1:18 pm to TidalSurge1
Maybe right before he commits.
Posted on 8/5/18 at 1:20 pm to TidalSurge1
Yea I took them out bc normally they have info im not supposed to say. I’ll probably deleted my recent update after a day.
