Can we get rid of the "Recruiting" Section on ponyfans.com?

Anything involving SMU basketball belongs here.

Men's BB recruiting can be, and is, covered in the BB section.

Because there are so many more FB recruits in play, they need their own section.

Wait, I can't believe I said that. Ignore this post.

Do you have any idea what that would do to everyone's post-count?!?

Junior, I have been following ponyfans.com for over 15 years, so be it, if I decided to start posting anything within the past 4 months. Didn't know that really mattered that much to you. I was just asking a question.

I guess it is not that easy to ask any questions on ponyfans without sarcastic responses. Equestrian, Baseball, Women's Hoops... Oh well. Wasn't that big of a deal, was just asking. You guys are probably right, there are a number of really valuable threads in the Recruiting Section... No name basketball player commits to Texas Tech, USC QB who did not play visits UT, a whole lot to do with SMU.

If this makes everyone feel better we can turn this into the most popular thread for sarcastic jabs. Come on let's get 1000+ responses.

We really could use the space, what with all the newcomers this season. Maybe we could add a pool and a cabana there?

If you do not like what you read on the recruiting site why do you want to shut it down and move those inane posts to the BB and FB sites. Just do not go there and pretend it does not exist. Problem solved.

He had an SMU offer, along with offers from some other big programs. Pretty sure that's recruiting forum worthy.

Maybe you should go back to not posting.

the bigger question is what makes someone who watched others post for 15 years decide to start posting. Would be great to go back and make that thing not happen.

Separate but equal. That's ok I think?

Do you guys even hear yourselves? gostangs, mrydel & East Coast Mustang, I asked a simple question and you guys do what you do, make something out of nothing. Talk down to posters and claim that you know everything. This tone gets really old.

Who cares how long I have been following ponyfans.com? Why does that matter to you? Who cares how long I have been posting? Is it not ok to ask a simple question? Why do you take unnecessary sarcastic jabs? I will never get it. Maybe it is an insecurity thing. Be grateful for the fact that we have alums and fans who want to talk SMU Sports.
