Dean Francis new podcast out there...

I for one enjoy Deans content and have for a long time now.

It’s great that whenever someone with a little bit of inside knowledge gives it out they are automatically attacked because some people don’t like what they hear. This cycle is repeated on a monthly basis and then we wonder why no one is willing to come on here and give info that they have. Makes me miss the days of the pay board.


You can just pay to disagree then!! I'm being funny sort of. People have opinions no matter payside or not. I do agree people are ready to pounce when partial info is given. This place has to be a good fish bowl for a social study
 
lol he had a whole pod on why we wouldn't make the tourney
I didn’t see it but what’s that have to do with speculation on recruiting? He was sharing his feelings.

You made it sound like he doesn’t speculate in general.

And he’s been wrong before. He had the lowdown on Moyer sitting and most of what he said was accurate. But there are people here who say Fred and JB never spoke. And Dean made it seem like Moyer would be out for awhile, but he was back for NC State.

I don’t understand the hate for the guy who gave free recruiting info for years. He says his opinion and he states facts.

Dude everyone thought moyer was out for awhile? Did you see the picture of his ankle? Come on man you’re just being against the dude because you don’t like what he says. it’s just like everything In this world, if you’re good at what you do and you’re right about things then you’ll gather haters.

LOL, I subscribe to his podcast and I’ve given him his due several times in this thread. I’m not against him at all.
 
How is that hate? I’m just refuting your statements.
Your comments that he supposedly made on the Moyer situation didn’t exactly sound like love lol
 
That’s debatable.
No, it’s a fact that there are people on here who claim Fred and JB never spoke. And it’s a fact that Matt returned for NC State.

Does that mean they didn’t speak guaranteed? No. Dean said 100% he wouldn’t play at NC state?
 
I like the podcasts and enjoy the info, but they have somewhat hurt the recruiting board imo, as it's kind of taboo to discus info learned from Francis. It's nice that people respect him and they want to help him get a few bucks for his hard work(which he should), but at the same time, it seems to be counterproductive to this forum to not be able to discuss aspects of the knowledge learned from him. People discuss info obtained from every other outlet, but not his. Again, it just seems odd for a recruiting message board and its members to frown upon discussing knowledge/info about recruits.

You aren’t supposed to talk about any pay board info on the regular board. From Skowt, the old one here and rivals.

Take it up with the people who say they never spoke. I was corrected the other day for stating otherwise.

Dean said he would be out awhile.
 
I value his recruiting stuff alot!
his other stuff is just another guy with an opinion :)

I actually agree with this. While I respect him a lot, I don't find him to be very interesting or insightful to listen to when he's not providing inside stuff. I don't mean any offense - just my opinion coming from a guy who spends a dollar a month.
 
But not info behind their respective paywalls, as Francis' podcasts are.

Posting their info word for word or parphrasing, yes. But, not discussing something, because you learned the info about an injury, a player's personal problem, etc. from a pay place, that is just silly.

Props to Francis for commanding that much respect.

And yet, those are the rules here. Any information you can't get from anywhere but a pay site is verboten.

I don't really have a problem with that even though I'd prefer it not the case. Where I can see as a continuous issue is when the information has become known outside the pay site. It's similar to plagiarism. No need to quote when the information has become common knowledge (so to speak).
