Daddio's latest:

Afterward I will have a lot to say that I couldn't say before. Many sleepless nights and sacrifice but I'm going to give it to you . It's getting more intriguing as it get closer. But I've always been honest about what I post. I'm very thankful for the blessings that has been betored on my son. I'll give my stress level to the hogs for peace. No point intended lmao . I think I'll go downtown now


I am not a fan of his writing.

Who knows? His best line was 'no point intended' IMO.

He's reminding me of DGB's parents after he chose Mizzou and they came out with the article talking shite on other schools.

Georgia offered 19 RB's last year and didnt land a single one. Why do you think that is?


Michel and Chubb were both freshmen last year. We didn't get a RB after Collins' freshman year either. You're trying to make the same argument for to-be juniors. By the way, Chubb and Michel are both to-be juniors now and they still got Elijah Holyfield and for a brief while, Whaley.


Depth chart didn't stop Elliott from going to OSU, Guice going to LSU, anybody ever from going to Bama, Patrick from going to FSU, Weber from going to OSU, etc..

You're seriously underselling how competitive most of these guys are. The bench doesn't cross most of their minds because they've never seen a bench before. Call it naivety, cockiness or whatever but they all expect to play because in their mind's they're all underrated, under appreciated, disrespected, and better than everyone else.

I played in high school with Jeff Driskel. He was a 5 Star, Gatorade POY and #1 QB. He fully expected to start at UF his freshman year and didn't give a frick about John Brantley already being there or Jacoby Brissett coming with him.

The only stress involving the hogs is the imaginary crap he rants on about.

I would say the dad is an attention whore but that would be in poor taste, so I definitely won't say the dad is an attention whore.

On the bright side, his article bashing Arkansas should only make this place that much more fun next season when we light them up again.

Folks did that to Montez on the 247 board last year. It was fascinating to see how quick they turned on him.

If Fulton goes anywhere except lsu that fanbase will eat him alive. I've never seen a post with that many Grammer errors not get mocked for pages on this site until that post.

And that means nothing if you get none of them.

To let a message board full of people they don't know influence their child's college decision would be wildly selfish.

Happens all the time though.

Not this year, no. But I think the staff sees it as progress. You don't come into a school like Arkansas that hasn't been successful recruiting wise and instantly develop relationships you need. I think that's just logical. Obviously, you CAN convince someone early on in your tenure, but it's easier after you've known their coach for a few years and he can speak highly of you.

It sounds as if Bert is busting his tail to get Fulton and that he is listening
