Now that's a fricking idea. Can we outsource recruiting?

Tim and Eric and the wkuk as directors of non contact recruiting.

I'm going to assume you're joking.

Because that comment is too misguided and ridiculously illogical to be serious.

Aren't you an Ole Miss alter anyway?


Eta: I really can't remember who accused you of that.

Yes, I was joking.

BUT my point was that people complain to much about small things.

So, go ahead and tell me how this "campaign" is hurting us then?

There are MANY possible positive explanations for this type of stuff...

quote:

Let's look at this objectively. It's weird and embarrassing. It's the equivalent of drawing a huge dick on your LSAT essay because you "wanted to stand out."

This is a fricking ridiculous comparison. It would only be applicable if the student that did it had no chance to pass the test, no chance to get into law school, and was only taking it "for fun" in attempt to get a laugh out of the test proctor who was a fricking supermodel and way the frick out of his league.

Does it pick up the broad...make her laugh? Or does it just disgust her and piss her off? Either way, you do get her attention -- which is more than could be said for anyone else in the room doing the same exact boring arse things...

We're never going to attract supermodels on our looks alone -- we might as well think outside the box and make ourselves memorable, whether that is good or bad.

Sorry then.

I'm not complaining...I just think its weird. Middle aged football coaches doing shite like this seems clumsy and contrived.

I like the black unis, but I hate how we play in them. shite, I even liked the snow bowl unis until manziel and the atm defense made us look like a jv team. AND THEN WE WORE THEM AGAIN AND LOOKED JUST AS BAD PLAYING AGAINST SLOW NERDS.

The egg bowl unis sucked all kinds of dick.

I love the twitter thing. It was new and smart and grabbed attention.

I'm not sure what you're trying to prove with this.

Oh I see now. Lets mail recruits crayon drawings of a kkk rally on the moon. That'll get them talking.

I have given up trying to know what a recruit finds embarrassing/stupid. I would think receiving 100+ letters from a school would be obnoxious...but apparently it is not.

You are an SEC school. Not fricking Mississippi Valley...this is embarrassing



Where as to the SWAG(yes I find it funny) and BALLER letters I feel that it shows a poor representation of the whole school. I know we Rebears constantly poke fun of y'all for whatever reason it maybe, but no matter how dumb we may think y'all are at times you aren't idiots ... I feel these letters comes off to the public perception as childish and idiotic. So yes it maybe funny, cute, whatever and entertain the recruits, but I feel that it is a detriment to the University's Image and furthers the Miss'ippi Stereotype.


ETA: That read like a flame ... What I meant is yes we as rebels will always try to see the worst out of any situation that arises like this in y'alls neck of the woods, but even putting that aside, to me this looks bad and I'd be upset if Freeze & Co. was doing this at TSUN. I know y'all are better than this.
