You can find out on Rivals, or ask the General in 2 hours.

Agreed - - It's sad that one has to go to killerfrogs.com for all of the latest news on the 2 SMU decommits. There is more relevent info over there about both of them than in the mysterious "find out by joining scout or rivals" posts over here.


It's because they take all their info from the TCU rivals site and post the premium stuff all the time. They get names from the premium info then post it public regarding the subject and devalue the the pay site. It's done on purpose and encouraged to underminte as well as stop traffic to the pay sites. Killer Frogs also is not a totally free site and certain areas they do charge.


KFc does not charge for anything unless you want to pay to reduce the ads. As far as getting everything from Rivals, ha...that will be the day.

And I so love it when the posters talk amongst themselves in round about ways to try and tease people into subscribing. Screw that!

I got news for you guys: Some of us just don't find the value of paying $10 a month for information that we'll be a day or two or hours behind on. So we don't know as fast you guys? Big freaking deal.

I'll use the $10 for the two margaritas I'm having tonight. I consider more value in that than whether or not some trumped-up 18-year-old is going here or there or anywhere or how his junior day at Our Lady of the Vineyard University turned out. Are you kidding?


Balderdash!

Some of you need to re-read that Pat Forde column that I recently posted and get a sense of reality.


The recruiting sites help more than that General. It guess some should not post anyhting until it is public. I guess that woudl fix the problem. Heck, I don't know but I do know we need those recruiting sites for more than just news. Also General, didn't you do some work for the Baylor Rivals site at one time?


No need to post anything unless it is actual news. Or perhaps put something in the subject line that indicates your post is a "find out at Rivals" post so that the rest of us can just skip it. Like the General - I will have two margaritas at Chueys now that they have finally opened one just south of Nashville! (Vince Young was there the other night)

Don't those sites have their own message boards? If you want to talk in code go do it over there where you are actually imparting some information to people who can understand it. Talking in code here is done for the reasons the general says or worse just to be irritating. Personally, I think it's kind of funny to watch the "subscribers" play their little games.

Half the wild game in the world and other strange meats taste like chicken...or so I have been told. I think it has something to do with the batter and frying.:)

So wait, TCU fans steal info from the premiums and post it on the free board?

Now how are some of the people on here going to argue that the premiums help recruiting, and those that repost the info are hurting our recruiting efforts?

(I'm not anti-Premium site and believe they have their place, but I've always found that argument ridiculous).

They help recruiting in other ways. Posting doesn't hurt recruiting (unless the coaches want to keep it quiet then it does) but it hurts the recruit site. Just to clarify.
