Bet it is someone who post on here. He just had to get some information about potential players.

If indeed this guy is the Rigby listed in your link I see no problem why he was there.
Also
He sounds like a recruiter to me.
Why is the advocate saying he isn't?

comment from the article:
what a d-bag
quote:
This man is a product of our community's obsession with college football. We have to stop now. We have to find something more constructive to do with our time and money so our state can begin to flourish. If we focus on college football the rest of our lives then we will become 70 years old and just look back and think.. "Did I really just waste my whole life watching an irrelevant football game? And for what? I've got nothing to show for it."

The advocate doesn't have the crack research staff we have on the rant.

But did he have a right to be at the camp? Recruiting specialist or not.

Evidently he was in a part of the complex reserved for only parents and when asked to leave he refused.
That in my book is reason enough to call the po-po.
You would have thought The Advocate would have done a little more research before airing this story.
Knowing the guys background would have been better than just putting "A man claiming to be a recruiter"

Seems this is why he was arrested, which has nothing to do with being a recruiter.

They probably said he isn't a recruiter because he isn't as it relates to the purpose of this camp, and he was probably asked to leave because he was looking to advance his own cause at an event that is not open to the public.
