This one was a little different than Pappoe or DBrown in that Walker was never silently committed to USCe.

With as uninspired as our DL recruiting has been the past few seasons, landing Walker was an absolute must for our DL coach. It seems like DL has been the one position that we had regressed in recruiting since Smart arrived.

Football boards are full of folks with short memories and inconsistent statements, but if you go to an opponent recruiting board it usually gets noticed. Here's what you said earlier:

you can hate this comment, but i was told we have flipped walker as of now.... i never post if it isnt legit


That post didn't sound like you were saying it was a long shot for USC to get Walker. If you really thought it was a long shot all along, no need to troll the UGA recruiting board with "i was told" rumors that you don't believe yourself.

You realize recruiting is fluid...and i did say "as of now"...hence the longshot...i never thought wed get him but we were close

All recruiting info is "i was told" unless you are the kid or family its all second or third hand...gotta sift through the bs...my info was all positive for SC then...not so much now and has been trending that way for a while.

Also, Ive never trolled yalls board if i did id be banned so gtfo with that nonsense.

But its fine ill not give my insights any longer if thats what you want.

As I've stated on our board, I've heard good things on Walker just don't feel like we pull it off but with boom, lance Thompson, and trob in his ear and the family pull anything is possible. Mcclendon I've heard he was all SC for a long time but Pittman has done a ton of work to get in on him, and that worries me. Like you said tons of dawn blood there.


Also guys I try to be as impartial in recruiting as possible to matter where I post, if I'm too homer let me know.

In the spirit of keeping the main thing the main thing...

Look out for JUCO DT Savion Williams to visit this weekend.

IMO, he closes out the DL class for this year.

Like I said, your statements are inconsistent. If you always thought it was a long shot for USC, then you never believed it was "close". That means you didn't really believe he had "flipped", unless by "flipped" you meant USCe had a small chance. Here's an edit of your earlier post as it could have been honestly written.

"i was told we have flipped walker as of now, but I don't believe that's true. It still think it's a long shot and he'll most likely go to UGA".

Just for clarity, presenting rumors on an opponent board that you believe have low probability of truth, without a disclaimer, is commonly referred to as "trolling". Suppose someone told me (or I read) that the USCe QB had failed out of school, but I thought it was unlikely to be true. If I went to the USCe board and said, "I was told that your QB has failed out of school.. I never post unless it's legit", that would be a troll. If I said, "I was told your QB has failed out of school, but I have good reason to doubt that it's true", then that's a more honest way of passing information.

Dude, just drop it. He had sauces that said SC. Sauces whiff sometimes. He's been cordial and he's not causing an issue.

No offense, but don't tell me what to post. If you're tired of the subject, you drop it and it will go away. When opposing fans contribute to this thread with their "I'm legit" sources, then I have no problem disputing that legitimacy. Cordiality is irrelevant; some of the worst liars I've ever met were cordial.

Might be worth an additional tab on the recruiting spreadsheet for this year...

Well, coming from someone who follows me around like a puppy, I can't give your opinion any more validity than those of some random USC poster and his pro-USC sources. And honestly, given your lack of logic, your pros and cons aren't worth reading.

If you want a pissing match, start another thread. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure our track records on this board speak for themselves.

It would be different if he didn't come back when he heard the news that SC wasn't in the same position they once were. He did. Not a lot of people are willing to come back and admit that.

These are 17-18 year old kids. Sometimes stuff changes, or someone doesn't have as good of info as they thought they did. As long as someone is honest about what they hear, I have zero problem with them bringing it to the board.

It's funny, you don't like my posts, I don't like yours. That's fine, all part of message boards. But only one of us follows the other one around and responds to their every post. That's your track record. You start these pissing matches and then accuse me of starting pissing matches. Next time, I suggest you start another thread or just leave it be.

So the #1 JUCO player in the country, Jermaine Johnson, 6’6” 250 WDE, is visiting this weekend and we’re trying to hold off a push by Oregon. Anyone want to talk about that, or is WD going to bitch some more and derail this thread again?
