If someone is willing to share, what do JHoke's midday notes say? Anything terribly different from what BM posted?

Reasons for wanting Foster.

1) Best linebacker in this class.
2) His announcement to us may bring us some good fortune on signing day.
3) Helps us at MLB immediately, which we need.

Reasons for not wanting Foster.

1) He's a crybaby bitch.
2) If he doesn't want to be here, and he's forced to anyway, it'll cause division on the team. If the rumors are true, our players already know his arse doesn't want to be there. This will lead to more shitty win/loss ratios.
3) Someone pisses him off at a crucial moment in a game, he'll get all emotional and do something stupid to get a penalty.
4) 4-2-5. We need linebackers but I got faith that Ellis Johnson can get Cassanova, Frost, Harding, Toney, etc ready. frick. We only need two most of the time.
5) We've had ballers under Chizik. They just couldn't be controlled. Reuben is a baller that can't be controlled.

It will be impossible for Foster to live up to the expectations people will have for him after the shitshow his recruitment has become

Can anyone tell me the last superstar recruit that acted like is that became a superstar college player? I'm sure there's an example but they're few and far between. I'm not saying he can't change and I still want him but he's worthless to us until that happens.

We made a mistake making Foster a priority over T Johnson.

Foster is the equivalent of the hot girl that's just a pain in the arse. The idea seems awesome and promising but you end up getting tired of her shite and dumping her arse.

disagree... from johnson's comments, it didn't matter. The fact we had three DCs in 12 months was enough for him to remove all doubt.

Wouldn't have changed anything. We still went very hard after Trey.. he didn't want any part of Auburn.

I'm not trying to be confrontational, but what does like this mean?

is it assuming that the rumors of saturday are true and he's to blame?

Or just run of the mill flipping back and forth and drawing the ire, then admiration, then ire of a fanbase?

Sorry but that type of logic is not welcome in this thread. Until they rob someone, get arrested for public intoxication, or admit to smoking fake weed on the stand during a teammates armed robbery trial, all 4* and 5* recruits are welcome no matter what the red flags are prior to NSD

This, plus all of the hamming it up on camera, relishing in the attention type stuff is what I took it as. I don't believe the RD story as it has been told on the web.

I think it's more likely an argument occured because he was leaving... not leaving because of an argument.... just my opinion.

No. Yeldon was not a headcase/problem recruit. He may have played us like a fiddle, but the kid is otherwise a good/smart kid.

Not really that many worlds apart from Reuben's trolling of AU if ya ask me.
