Message: [QUOTE="Rocco, post: 935625, member: 51"] Great post [USER=27]sutomcat[/USER]. People were getting irked this past month or so when people would post info about football recruiting, including myself. I am not going to come out and give direct quotes from anyone or anything I hear. I led my posts on as much as I could without revealing who/what the source was. I said things were about to get exciting and it sure as hell was. The specific battles the staff was dealing with as other schools trying to poach our recruits was a real challenge. Please put me on ignore if you don't like to read "cryptic" stuff like that. It's not cryptic if you sit back and think for a minute. I was pretty tight with Marrone's camp and every time I posted anything, certain people bashed it. I know many people truly dislike DM and that's fine. Don't shoot the messenger. Main reason I don't post most of the stuff I hear anymore. The situation 2 years ago with Ogundeko was insane. Posted a few things, but we didn't have a chance at landing him and Doug knew it, much to his dismay. Soap opera. Not as close with Shafer's group, but still hear some stuff from time to time, especially recruiting and practice/roster info. There is no sense in sharing some of the info, especially when we know the writers over at Syracuse.com steal the stories and spin them into their own. Maybe if they weren't such douches to the coaching staff, they would have access to the program like our old friend Dave Rahme. Cohen really burned that bridge even though he's gone, but that started when he was writing with a negative bias at the Daily Orange. Marrone banned him from any access to the team after a certain article he wrote. I agree with [USER=320]oldpinepoint[/USER], I miss the pay board days. Some of the negative nancies on here truly discourage many from posting a lot of the stuff they hear. It's a shame and only hurts those who actually deserve some of that info. Thanks for the mods who clean up the posters who find satisfaction in bashing others and their "info". Sorry for the rant, but if you have nothing positive to say, why say anything at all? [/QUOTE]
